SocraticGadfly: Chinese environmentalism boosted by protectionism

Chinese environmentalism boosted by protectionism

Or, how the US is doubly screwed, by itself, by the WTO, as Chin refuses to let U.S. and European companies work on solar or wind power products.

But, we don’t have to put up with this crap, legally; China has never signed relevant WTO side protocols on government procurement, contra a promise way back in 2001.

However, we do have to, in a sense, since our debt is hostage to China. Europe, on the other hand, has more room to play; will we see a call for sanctions against China?
