To brag a little, I designed this plant. Product is for local market - not economical to export.

It depends. Producing chemicals from petroleum based feedstock can be more expensive, but it also produces more valuable by-products than if producing chemicals from natural gas liquids such as ethane, propane, and butane. The competitor for methane (nat gas) is coal in China. These two are roughly similar in cost. Gas-derived chemicals have an advantage when gas is cheap and oil is expensive. This was true in 2010-2015. Before fracking, gas was expensive and oil was cheap in 2001-2009 (so the reverse). Today, cost between the two for chemical feedstock is roughly comparable.Quick shop question:
Since natural gas is a feedstock for so many chemicals, are producers of many of these chemicals operating outside the U.S. Gulf Coast or the Arabian Gulf (or other real cheap natural gas price locales) at a significant competitive disadvantage?
I know you are being facetious, but the products from mnfg. plants that I have designed improve the standard of living in places like China, Thailand, and India. There is no sin in that. Further, absent our participation, the Chinese would have chosen Swiss or substandard Chinese technology. These projects are wins from multiple angles.So you've done a little of the Devil's Work. . .
If anyone cared to notice, China stopped stealing our jobs about 10 years ago. There is only so many low end assembly-type and textile jobs that you can displace by a low labor cost foreign exporter. Yes, the damage is real but it’s old news. Again, China only became a threat when they threatened the jobs of high tech, finance, and the military-industrial complex.

Didnt know this - and it feels somewhat disturbing
I think these connections are going to become more noticeable as Biden drives the country into the dirt, to the benefit of China
... Right now Democrats are probably worse, ...
Ted Cruz calls this "one of the greatest tweets of all time"
Biden is going to act like being tough on China was his idea. They will keep 80% of Trump policy but still trash the man. The only folks who are unable to see this are the progressive left. They are getting rolled over.
If Biden keeps 80% of Trump policy that would be amazing.
Only for countries who don't pay Hunter or James. I can't see Biden being aggressive anywhere, especially not in Russia, China, or Ukraine.......... Foreign policy probably won't be much different, but a bit more aggressive.......
