forefront. Their reckless abandonment for human life will either cause a catastrophe in the future or this will turn out to be one. We should cancel all of our debt with them and give them the finger. What can they do about it, if they don’t like, absolutely nothing. Their government has no regard for humanity and would cover up the worst of atrocities against their own people, what do you think they would do to others?

The sad part is that China will have no shame or guilt when it’s all said and done.

The keyboard you're typing on, the mouse you're clicking, the monitor you're looking at, the computer running this program, the chair you're sitting in, the desk you're sitting at, the clothes you're wearing are likely mostly made in China. Give that some thought.

How is that a counter argument? The US or other countries are more than capable of manufacturing all of that stuff.

It will be a very slow process but we are going to have to make the essentials for health that are needed here. I don't know if it is possible to make 100 percent American goods here because this is a consumer economy that spends, spends and spends more until you are broke.

Some people are so amazingly black/white with absolute no concept of nuance or the bigger picture. They're usually Republicans.

Enough to be invested in the global credit market to the tune of around $5 trillion, or nearly 50% of their annual GDP.

You can't be serious if you think the rest of the world wouldn't support the US just like the US would support other countries that did the same to China.

I think there will be a big made in America push after this. I can see trump increasing tariffs more and giving tax credits to repatriate essential manufacturing. If he is re-elected of course
