The backlash against the Chinese government, after all of this is over (or under control) should be severe - and most of it should come from American citizens.

I personally believe that the nationality of whatever company makes a product, where that product is actually made, and the percentage of raw material/parts are from the nation the company is based in should be on everything sold in the US. People can then decide on the basis of their conscience, but I hope a large number of people will stop buying Chinese goods. Let the American stores choke on their made in China inventory - and thus avoid those goods in their supply chain going forward.

I also think the government should drastically decrease H1Bs, and put a moratorium on H1Bs for Chinese tech and scientific people. This will be easy to justify in the short term, given societal fears secondary to Corona.

Disturbingly, I am hearing just the opposite from those on the left, saying that this pandemic should teach the world to embrace one another.

We live in a world in which just about every major nation has nuclear weapons, and it's largely only mutually assured destruction that has, to date, stopped nations from using them. We live in a world in which we have locks on our doors, spend a ton of money on militaries to protect us, have to guard against cyber criminals and espionage, and can't trust our own governments. It's a dangerous place, and the veneer of civility is disturbingly thin.

In the real world in which we live, what we are required to do is to protect freedom, protect innocence, and make sure that we stay strong as a nation that offers a life of liberty and self-determinism. It's our duty. It is NOT our duty to weaken ourselves in order to make the UN, or any other globalist coalition happy.

The only thing holding hands and singing Kumbayah will do is sicken more people. Idiots.

Well said.
And I hope the backlash against Communist China extends to the American Quislings who embrace them.
