Self-sufficiency

 

Self-sufficiency

China now is the largest exporter of cars and makes 2/3 of the world's EVs.

In a very interesting interview with a European trade minister, he worried about the current American anxiety about the rise of Chinese influence over American economy and military. His opinion is that the effort by the Americans to isolate themselves in self-contained safety is incompatible with the vulnerabilities of the Europeans who do not have the American capacity for self-sufficiency and need trade, especially with China.

This may be the beginning of that great separation of demographics and energy and food integrity that so many states will not have in the near future.
