You are correct that the tenants of Capitalism rests on Freedom and Trade.
So, 250 Million Chinese had their lands stolen and bull dozed over and then sent to the Big Cities to work.
In China, you do as the Government tells you and work when they tell you.
They had no choice. Given how much Big Business is in bed with China in this country, we can safely say that it is not Capitalism we have between China and the USA either.
The spoils of this arrangement went to shareholders and corporate profits, not the consumers, and there are many products to hold up as an example where the consumer price Americans pay is 5 times what the costs are.
Corporate and Banking Lobbyists want to the highest possible prices at the lowest costs to them.
