> Do you have any friends in the tech industry? I have at least one friend who wound up at a job whose chief responsibilities were factory-based, and therefore that involved his frequent and extended travels to China.

I'd quit my job rather than go on a business trip to China. No amount of money is enough to put my life at such high risk.

You realize the vast, vast majority of the electronics industry and many other industries have very little choice in the matter (for the time being at least). That's great you can make that decision, but there are many who don't have that luxury.

If you want or require mass production of electronics or motors, it's fairly difficult to have done in the US for competitive pricing (or in some cases, at all).

How would you feel about a trip to India? Speaking as someone who has been to both India and China, China has a stronger rule of law and feels safer than India. (For context: I am saying this as a white American male)

My biggest worry isn't the crime. It's the risk that the CCP will kill me or lock me up for the rest of my life. I wouldn't be willing to go to India either, but if I were forced to choose between the two, I would pick it over China.
