Real growth should come from real productivity rather than increases in consumer spending...but that is another discussion.

Unfortunately the US and other countries buy a lot of low quality junk from China (which adds up) while in return China gets top notch technology from the US for an apple and an egg in return for the junk they export to the US and other countries.
China is notorious for violating IP (from the US)... SMIC is a prime example ... they got nailed by TSMC... and China is a third class country when it comes to semiconductor manufacturing
It's not clear to me why the new Bay Bridge is built with steel from China ... but do not blame Obama...
