Commie countries passing production around to the next ones after getting developed enough to become consumers to the new producer is the future I want
But if that means that China will grow to be a more consumption driven economy, is that not good for them?
It could actually be good for everyone involved if done well, which I think is China's premise with BRI at large. China's consumption could fuel a rapid development of the global south in the way that western consumption supported China's development to become what it is today. The big differences being that China is doing it with the goal of helping to develop the places the west intentionally underdeveloped.
Africa is the future of the world in terms of population, production, and natural resources, and China is positioning themselves as a key ally, trading partner, investor, and goods consumer.
As the West convulses in its death throes, China and Africa will be resplendent.
Depends, it's a pretty common take that a lot of the US's infrastructural woes are due to not being able to build things effectively anymore, which is downstream of de-industrialization.
