Sue them in federal court for the cost of the pandemic they caused, then subtract an enormous judgement from what we owe them.

We just need to get the people off their addiction to buying a bunch of cheap schitt they don't need.

Subtract from? Hell no. What we owe them is a small fraction of what the cost will be of this $hit.
Cut them off, erase the debt, zero trade, zero travel. Tell every country to do the same.
They like watching countries collapse so much they might as well study it up close.

Probably somewhere between the two. If people were only buying what they needed and few wants, then we'd probably be in a lot less debt to them. OTOH, they ARE the only game in town in many cases. We just need to be making a lot more stuff here and realize that essentially, slave labor in other countries ultimately carries a much higher cost than just the cheap goods made on the backs of poor folks that you don't have to look in the eye every day.

Apparently the concept of importation tarriffs eludes you.

That won't wash...but suing them for with-holding vital information would.

And as for a judgement, once governments around the world twig that it would be an excellent way to remove property (ports etc) from chinese stewardship you will see a rush like none before.

Literally a mad dash for chinese assets in each sovereign land.


But first things first, start an organised litigation and freeze assets as quickly as possible before they divest themselves of said assets (jiggle books).


These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

We do not need communist going to our schools. We do not need communist working in our companies. We should not buy items made by any communist country or company. We do not need any communist in our city, local, or federal government. We do not need any communist in our military or military training schools. We just do not need communist anything in America. If communist are here then they need to be ran out of the country.

Good strategy, IMO.

That would almost guarantee war. China would have nothing to lose. They would have high unemployment, less access to resources, and a huge population of single males due to the one child policy. Add in the loss of face and China would feel forced to act, much like Japan did when we cut off steel and oil exports to them in 1941.

Look at the Label first. Most of the stuff they sell we don't need. I don't need 6 pairs of sneakers from China, just one pair from the US or a country that is normal would suffice.

The problem with that is, 30 minutes later you want to screw them again.

The 'Country of Origin" labels that have been removed and minimized need to be brought back to prominence. Let the U.S. citizens make the choice, do they want their money going to China.
