If China and SE Asia ended up being the only manufacturing countries in the world, do you think the living standards and welfare conditions in Western countries like Australia would remain the same?
China showed how much compassion it had when it threw 200% tariffs on us, so if we can only source our equipment from China, you two somehow think that would be good for us? Interesting.

As I posted earlier China exports 30% of the worlds goods, the U.S has fallen from 19% to 15% in the last 6 years, the rest of the world export very little of large scale.
So extrapolating that out, China will end up with enough market share to screw every other countries manufacturing, just on pure size and volume, plus State sponsorship.
You worry about Woolies and Coles having a duopoly, but you don't get fazed by China having a monopoly, interesting.
