    I think most countries are too obsessed with making money for the oligarchs that vote them into power to really be bothered with trying to have nation level consumer manufacturing of consumer electronics. Way more money exploiting labor for cheap, importing it with false flag container ships, and then selling to consumers at massive markups.

      Yeah… it feels like we are seeing a planned economy function better in the long run than a capitalist economy….
