Скачать или смотреть The Manufacturing Exodus: Why 67,000 U.S. Factories Moved to China in 30 Years

Between 1998 and 2010, America lost 5.8 million manufacturing jobs while China gained 22 million. This wasn’t just outsourcing—it was one of the largest peacetime transfers of industrial wealth in human history. But what financial mechanisms made this possible?
In this documentary, we examine the hidden financial architecture behind the manufacturing exodus: currency manipulation, trade finance structures, monetary policy decisions, and the circular capital flows that reshaped the global economy.
