I actually see this as a good thing (for us as a nation).
China has been paying for it’s domination by selling cheap crap around the world. But they are not capitalist (in the more traditional view) it is more of a criminal organization. Imagine a large business that seems to be earning billions of dollars but is cash poor. Where did the money go? Graft and corruption.
Without the money stream from Western nations China will soon be facing bigger problems then from the virus.
A lot of their impressive infrastructure was built on the cheap and will not survive over time (including high rises, roads, bridges and dams).
But the best news for the west is that China may soon run out of western currency they use to bribe our politicians and media.
Who would have thought the virus they unleashed on the world would destroy them first.
I have a few questions that I am sure no one here knows the answers to.
1. Does China have a “real” covid scariant problem? The videos and whatnot trotted out in the beginning were faked so as to make covid appear much worse that it really was, for various reasons.
2. Are any container ships unloaded at US ports? Or is it just very very slow?
3. What is the REAL reason container ships are not being unloaded? Could it related to the EO about no goods coming in from countries that help defraud US elections by any chance?
4. If container ships with produce are rotting out there, why don’t the managers of ports let them cut in line?
5. Since China is imploding economically in many ways, it is possible that Chinese factories can’t make crap goods at the rate it used to? And add to that much less US $ coming in since our shelvers are emptying out and thus far less Chinese crap in stores?
