china gave us CV....???rite??? a brilliant economic warfare move for which i do not see much retaliation...i mean we cannot shoot em, or send a missle over while they kill our people and disrupt out economy...BUT ..a similar no brainer move would be to refuse entry to one china container ship for every AMERICAN CV death... a one to one move to balance the scales..now i would see chinamart (walmart) shed tears but hey AMERICA was a viable country before they go to be retail giants and i believe we could survive without their import stuff and build it HERE anyway >>>>>> jobs jobs jobs

In this day and age, a virus will propagate unless an entire population is 100% quarantined, and then, once quarantine is lifted, will pick up where it left off. We are seeing that today in the US, and it is to be expected. It is the natural course of events, and for us to think we can change it is not only hubris, it is dangerous. We either have the virus run its course, or we remain huddled in our basements until our betters tell us that we now have a vaccine and it is safe to come out and play. A vaccine will be only partially effective, so even if we wait a year for a vaccine, the virus will, again, pick up where it left off.
China is evil. We should stop buying things from China and encourage production in the US.
The consumer will be the driving force behind this, as it was the consumer who drove manufacturing to China because we are selfish people. I am fully on board with punishing China, but that is an individual thing, and is not a government thing. Stop buying from China and you solve the problem. Don't go crying to government to solve a problem we as individuals created.
