Clearly the Chinese are conspiring to use a lot of oil to produce the
products we buy from them.

The only good part being they're destroying their own environment hand over
fist in their rush into industrialization. Better to have their rivers and
cities wrecked than ours, right? To say nothing of poisoning their own
(underpaid, nearly slave) workers and their children. What better market to
sell our drugs to for treating the results of it, right? And foreign oil,
better to suck everyone else dry long before tapping our own reserves.

All because some nitwits think it's a bargain to get cheap **** from
Walmart. Talk about braiding your own rope for the hangman.
