The Federal government, through onerous taxes and regulations CAUSED this “outsourcing” of manufactured goods and medicines, beginning 30 years ago?

The mantra, “Cheap Chinese stuff” is “good” for America took a nose dive, didn’t it?

This coronavirus black cloud may have a silver lining, mightn’t it?

“Made in America” might just be back in style!

Now all we have to do is get rid of the politicians an businessmen who sold us down the Chinese river!

Lowering the tariffs in the 60’s did more harm than the taxes and regulations.

You can remove all taxes and regulations and still not compete with cheap labor in China.

And not all of the taxes and regulations are bad. But you can’t have those taxes and regulations if you don’t protect your economy.

"through onerous taxes and regulations"

that's marginal, Clinton getting rid of tariffs, pushing China into the WTO, and giving the most favored nation status lit the greed fuses in corporations and made the collapse of US industry inevitable. Saving $20 dollars an hour by hiring six Chinese in China rather than one American in the US is what CAUSED this outsourcing,

China didn't take a single job from the US, the siren song of historically unrealistic profit margins took those jobs to China.

I believe this is how the pimping of the corona virus will come back to bite the traitors to this country. I think Trump will turn it around on them again! Best Ever!
