As they       undercut U.S. production, however, they will gradually weaken the American       economic base that they        have come to depend on. Rather than a self-sustaining, self-reinforcing       process, this new relationship becomes self-liquidating."                US consumer bust shrinks world trade       China’s second-quarter exports decline had nothing to do with re-shoring,       contrary to some economic commentary              https://asiatimes.com/2023/08/us-consumer-bust-shrinks-world-trade/               US consumer bust shrinks world trade       China’s second-quarter exports decline had nothing to do with re-shoring,       contrary to some economic commentary       by David P.
