We can, we’re just not going to do anything about it because decades of outsourcing American (and others) industry to China has made us a bit dependent on keeping them happy.

Then it is a good thing he is dead.

Rather not inadvertently cause the creation of the Chinese version of MacArthur with this view about the US due to short term thinking.

Even without outsourcing, there are challenges to stopping a genocide by strong military power.
