No problem. Pass the rules required to create the manufacturer environment needed to replicate China's success.
One of the problems is the workforce itself. You need people to work in those plants, and for every German specialist in chip manufacturing, for example, you have hundreds of Chinese ones. It’s a long process of education and incentives, and even then you’ll get your stuff at a higher price, since the wages are higher.
Good idea in general, not easy or quick to implement.
Well first off as it is the EU you can raid Holland, but whatever.
You are right in general. However people can be moved and taught. It is a very fixable problem.
We went from only the idea of a nuclear bomb to using them in war in three years. We went to the moon in less than 10 years. With similar investments we can develop the needed people in a few years.
If we should is a good question: opportunity costs needs to be considered. The people who learn one job won't have time to learn something else that is likely also useful.
You massive labor and enviromental degulation? Thatll go over real well
I don't think it has to be that way to get the results that we want.
Get rid of zoning. Fire local politicians for bad employment numbers. Loss of local control over infrastructure if they can't keep up with community needs. Make it clear to every small government that they are getting a factory in their town and if they mess with the ability to produce and employbpeople a higher level of government will step in and take over.
That's an ignorant view of China's success. Anyway, the extraordinary regulations that were used are far more interesting than any lacking or deregulation:
