Shrug. I’ll take Chinese turbines over Russian oil any day



Suppose China invades Taiwan. Suppose their turbines are assembled using slave labor. In my opinion, we need to incentivize China to clean up its act, not reward them for reprehensible behavior.


Meanwhile we are using devices to type on HN that use that same slave labor from a totalitarian state. Why is it energy we draw the line but not the latest iPhone or the chips in our alarm clocks.


Sure. But I’ll still take Chinese turbines over Russian oil any day.
