I just got done talking to a bud for a good bit and we went way down the rabbit hole on some theories about how this all came about and if it was intentioned. This is a time for us all to do some real self reflection as a nation as to what we want our futures to be...and who we want in charge of it. It'd be nice if we could get passed DC's purposeful partisanship divide and demand some serious answers as to how this happened and what will be done to prevent it in the future.

Companies who build here see sales decline. They move their shit over there. If the American consumer refused to buy Chinese made shit. No one would import it.

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted March 17, 2020 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) Reality is this. We can't bring back everything. The focus should be on necessities like meds and med ingredients as fast as we can. Beyond that we need to work with Canada and Mexico to ramp up on other products that we can't make and rid ourselves of China once and for all. I see a huge positive in putting some stuff in Mexico and Canada over China. I can tell you this would be meet with great hesitation from corp America. Not just from a cheap mfg source but the worlds larges potential market. It would have other financial impacts. In my own personal experience my company and one of my customers jump thru all kinds of hoops to sell there and historically it has not paid off one fucking bit.

We need to stop allowing them to buy our companies. They do own some food producers here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last week, Biden raised eyebrows when he shrugged off concerns over the China threat. “Come on, man,” Biden said. “I mean, you know, they’re not bad folks, folks. But guess what, they’re not competition for us.” In 2013, then-Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden flew aboard Air Force Two to China. Less than two weeks later, Hunter Biden’s firm inked a $1 billion private equity deal with a subsidiary of the Chinese government’s Bank of China. The deal was later expanded to $1.5 billion. In short, the Chinese government funded a business that it co-owned along with the son of a sitting vice president. https://nypost.com/2019/05/11/the-troubling-reason-why-biden-is-so-soft-on-china/ Edited March 17, 2020 by Highmark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are ways China could be made to pay if Trump went after them for the cost of the virus. Their lies and shutting out the WHO cost the world 2 months of preparation. Definition of negligence.
