US probe finds China unfairly dominates shipbuilding, paving way for penalties
US President Joe Biden's administration has concluded that China uses unfair policies and practices to dominate the global maritime, logistics and shipbuilding sectors, three sources familiar with the results of a months long trade investigation told Reuters.
...United Steelworkers and four other US unions under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, which allows the US to penalize foreign countries that engage in acts that are "unjustifiable" or "unreasonable," or burden US commerce.
Sums up the "Western" mentality pretty well, I'd say. "We are shit at everything we do, so we will punish you for doing well." Imagine a country that has actual laws to "penalize" others for being inconveniently good at something. What a depressing state of affairs. Also, "months long" investigation... Time well spent! Because spending "months" to just get good is too hard, so let's do this instead. Clowns.
