"China" Competition

Recently, the tech industry trotted out the "China" bogeyman as justification for taxpayer funding of datacenters and other tech industry projects.

All the people who shipped jobs to India and China are now worried the US, which they have zero allegiance to and even despise and scorn, will "lose" some mythical race to China. Seems implausible. Also seems that generations of such business people are dumb asses that constantly make bad choices... so why slave away on their behalf?

The US corporation made endless terrible decisions the whole time I've been conscious, mainly because the people who actually run the country are delusional sickos. When the cold war ended, there was a real chance to bring the former Soviet Union into the western "liberal" system, however, the western liberal system ended at roughly the same time and shifted into central planning and endless warfare mode and neocons completely took over US war and economic planning.

The idea that there's some existential threat associated with China "winning" the non-existent AI contest is just some dumb talking point by tech industry grifter scumbags.

The tech industry is just meandering all over the place, not really providing a whole lot of value. A whole lot of the US economy turned into some kind of potemkin village scenario where people go to an office and turn a crank that poops out power point presentations because they work to keep the central banking system running and to help fund billionaire lifestyles rather than solve simple problems of their life or their community.

People frenetically "invest" in these crap corporations and barely even know anything about their home, or the geography of their immediate vicinity or their neighbors, etc...
