De-coupling from China will eventually cripple the USA instead of China

 The seeds of de-coupling from China are really sprouting fast and furious, that will eventually cripple the USA instead of China.

Chinese drugmakers have been making pittance providing the essential raw materials for USA drug makers, who in turn makes billions 'freeloading' on cheap Chinese pharmaceutical raw materials over the years.

Now the USA Government is trying its very best to get rid of Chinese companies providing essential raw materials for the USA drug makers inside the USA citing, as usual, National Security Issues. These USA drug makers, just like Apple, makes billions every year leveraging on the cheap costs of their raw materials sourced from Chinese companies. These Chinese pharmaceutical providers have their supply chains inside China and are able to provide much cheaper products for their USA counterparts.

The USA Senate is passing a law to prevent USA drug makers from doing business with Chinese drug raw material providers in areas like cancer and HIV. These USA drug makers depend on those Chinese companies to provide the basic essentials for their drugs and will suffer catastrophic crippling in their ability to function, which will ultimately affect those dependent on those drugs. USA patients with cancer and HIV, among others, will have to pay an arm and a leg for such drugs. Medicare in the USA is already hitting the exosphere and medical insurance is getting out of reach.

Now the USA is trying to dominate the world's copper, when China already holds an iron grip on supplies. It is too late for them and an exercise in futility.

Why trying to take back what is already lost for good? Too late for that. Just concentrate on the overcapacity in toilet paper printing and keep inventing sanctions on others. These are the areas that they can dominate, for now.

Sweeping the floor to scavenge what is left by China is just what the USA is doing.

The USA and EU are not the only market for Chinese products like EVs. Trying to increase tariffs by 100% only hurts its own people.

The rest of the Global South will have even cheaper Chinese EVs and is that going to cripple China?

Has Trump's trade war many years ago crippled China? How could a crippled China still be accused of having overcapacity in Industrial output? Where is the logic?
