The European Commission chief said she was “convinced that if the competition is fair” from China, then Europe “will have thriving durable economies”.

We shipped all our manufacturing to a country that allows slave labor and now they’re beating us.
hey, but you get to deflect from that like you’re role models of human rights. until you look into your history, oh wait…
First part: looks like that was a mistake. Decentralized manufacturing has always been the future, though.
Second part: we overcame that, didn’t we? That’s why it’s history and not currently happening like in China.
Decentralized manufacturing has always been the future, though.
No, you don’t understand, this is actually an incredibly efficient method of producing food for retail consumption.
Perhaps we mean different things with “decentralized”. What I meant was that it’s a bad idea to outsource all your manufacturing to the part of the world where its cheaper. Keep some steel mills, auto plants and chip foundries near where they’re consumed. Food production is actually a good example of decentralized manufacturing. I buy mostly locally grown produce, I can literally take a walk and see the wheat which will someday be the bread I eat.
