Why would any nation allow China 'free' access to their market, when China doesn't allow free access to its domestic market?
China is by far the most restrictive large economy in terms of foreign access, free trading with that as a context is economic suicide. It's a one-sided plunder given enough time.
if china can do it cheaper or better (as in, <32nm chips, for example), then is the market really free? or is it only "free" for companies in the US with large amounts of money to spend on lobbying?
capitalism for me and not for thee (or vice versa)
