US Should Learn From China, Says Analyst | JQJO

Analyst Dan Wang, known for his insightful observations on China, argues that the U.S. can learn from China's successes, particularly in infrastructure and manufacturing. He contrasts China's 'engineering state' with America's 'lawyerly society', highlighting China's achievements in areas where the U.S. appears stagnant. However, Wang cautions that the U.S. should learn the *right* lessons from China, avoiding the pitfalls of authoritarianism and prioritizing human welfare over national power. He also notes concerning parallels between the approaches of Xi Jinping and Donald Trump. Wang's book, "Breakneck: China's Quest to Engineer the Future," explores these themes in detail.
