China and America (aka Chimerica) love each other.&#xA;&#xA;Controllers&#39; lens after the 90s:&#xA;&#xA;US wants:&#xA;  - cheap imports,&#xA;  - suppressed goods inflation,&#xA;  - someone to buy endless Treasuries,&#xA;  - geopolitical leverage over industrial chains.&#xA;&#xA;China wants:&#xA;  - export-led growth,&#xA;  - technology &amp; capital inflows,&#xA;  - time to build domestic capacity and surveillance apparatus,&#xA;  - a way to turn sweat + coal into reserves and gold.&#xA;&#xA;So the deal (often framed as &#34;globalization&#34; in official language) is:&#xA;- US prints high-quality paper (USTs, Agencies, USD bank liabilities).&#xA;- China prints low-wage labor, exports, and real goods.&#xA;- China recycles the USD surplus back into US paper.&#xA;&#xA;= ❤️</html></oembed>
