The actual reason is socioeconomic.

China was still agrarian and America had already shifted.

Labor was drawn from the farms and exploited.

America did this a hundred years ago and all those pesky union effort created a workplace that was harder to exploit.

Luckily they've manage to convince Americans that being exploited is an acceptable trade off just as the socioeconomic conditions in China has slowed.

Exploiters are going to exploit. Doesn't matter if it's communism or capitalism. The ones with the least social consciousness climbs to the top.

Us plebs can be easily tricked into blame an other.
