is this another thing mussolini never said?
Maybe it should just be viewed as a warning not to elect trump to do the same to the USA.

Western leaders grew up in societies that were trying to avoid the instability of the Great Depression and WWII. Xi grew up being told the chaos of the Cultural Revolution was great. What western leaders would see as existential problems, Xi sees as road bumps.
I think Xi is underestimating the danger he has put himself in, but I also think Xi disagrees with me.

Economist are still debating all this. It obviously benefits the consumers of goods to get them cheaper. If the consumers are also manufacturers(so the Chinese goods are components to American goods) then the manufacturers benefit.
The argument against it being a net good is that there is a barrier to entry. If Chinese goods drive out of business American manufacturers, then it is difficult for the American manufacturers to get back in when Chinese goods go back up in price.
This ends up being an interesting argument against any form of pure capitalism.
I, like most people, emotionally default to setting up barriers. But I am looking at the sudden transition in manufacturing that is coming up, and wondering why preserve things we are going to be throwing away.
