Proposal: Creation of the COVID-19 Compensation Fund.
Beneficiary: Victims of the Wuhan Virus.
Fees: 20% tariff on all imports from China in addition to any existing tariff rates.
Not happening. If China is made to suffer, they will just pass the pain onto the rest of the planet. And the DEMs will protect them.
Not a good idea. You’ll have every family that loses someone to a crash or brain tumor getting the cause of death listed as “COVID-19” just to qualify for a lottery jackpot.
Uhhh no. Why are you still willing to buy anything from the Chicoms?
How about this: divert all foreign aid money to help rebuild our shattered economy. Charity begins at home.
Of particular importance is the fact that China, in collusion with Iran principally and then Russia, is trying to claim it came from us. With their lies on statistics, it LOOKS that way. Do something!!!!

Great idea. A 20% tax on Chinese goods will be paid by US consumers, not the Chinese.
So American consumers are going to be the ones to supply the money to the compensation fund to pay for China's negligence?
