We all better hope India doesn't cutoff its supply of generic drugs to this country:

India is a major supplier of pharmaceuticals, particularly generic drugs, to the United States. Approximately 47% of all generic prescriptions in the US are filled by Indian companies. This significant supply contributes to billions of dollars in savings for the US healthcare system. However, recent discussions about reciprocal tariffs could potentially impact this trade relationship.

Good time as any to end our dependence on them

[chrisinoc]

Yes, especially ant-viral drugs.

Pharmaceuticals are currently excluded from the tariffs but that doesn’t stop India from declaring an embargo on the drugs.

Why do I feel this is not really about “Russian oil?”

Trump has been particularly aggressive with Canada, South Africa and India.

Little to do with Russia/Ukraine, but all are active outposts of the rump-UK empire and WEF globalism.

Just a thought.....

India wont retaliate. But Trump is talking of 250% duties on pharma

American pharma has plenty of capacity and knowledge to produce as many generics as needed.

Tax remittences. That will impact a pretty wide group in India—from the average family living off relatives in the US to large corporations. Make it hurt to get dollars.

You’re not going to scam us anymore, making believe you are Microsoft? The place is the world’s sewer.

President Trump. Enough is enough. Just eliminate all Indian student visas.

Also the motels.

Not to mention all the Indian Supermarkets that are popping up like weeds here in Texas.

And now with AI threatening a lot of Techie jobs, what are all the Indians here going to do, when their jobs dry up?

Assume most Indian citizens are intelligent achievers; why would they sacrifice their families’ future for a socialist paradise ? The food may be good but that is transferable; the rest not so desirable except family. If they were true believers in India they would not stay in the United States.

All BRICS countries need to feel the full economic weight of their decision to challenge the US.
