There is a great movie, “American Factory” that shows the difference in US workers and management and Chinese works and management. It won an Academy award and is available on Netflicks or Amazon.
Competing with China is going to be tough for a long time. Once a substantial middle class develops and people there demand better working conditions, fewer hours, more safety, and more autonomy things will begin to even out. I think people have a natural desire for freedom and autonomy and given the opportunity won’t live under oppression.
