Communism in China has turned Chinese society into an amoral, short-term money-grubbing culture.

That’s what happens when “dialectic materialists” control everything and destroy civil society because it can not be controlled politically.

Average Chinese know the amount of fakery and corruption in their society (we only hear 1% here in the West), but to change it would mean changing society - and that would be dangerous for the Party.

And more and more of the vitamin and mineral supplements are made in China. There is no way to know whether some prescription drugs or supplments are made in China, and as usual, those selling these products in the US will fight country-of-origin labeling laws.

Pet food, drywall, drugs. Why do we trade with them again?

Vaccines and/or their components are also made in China.

The FDA has stated it’s not possible, nor is it their job, to inspect such imports.

Drugs, sterile instruments, normal saline, power stretchers - you name it, it probably isn’t made here. My guess is foreign-made medical supplies account for at least 80% of what we use, and our production capacity is gone.

If China wants to screw us, all they have to do is close the pipeline.

Or put slow, slow acting poisons in the drugs.

Internet source: "Not all bilberry supplements contain authentic bilberry. ... the availability of less expensive, non-authentic ingredients, particularly from China . . . ."

It appears that supplement makers that get their bilberry extract from Indena, S.p.A., Milan, Italy get real and standardized bilberry extract. As best I can figure.

If the bilberry extract comes from Red China who knows what the hell it is.
