If China can’t supply what we need, the FREE MARKETS OF THE USA will fire up. That is why ultimately THEIR economy depends on OURS - we have FREEDOM on our side!
I’d have thought people on FREE Republic would get it!
Sadly most Freepers ( and most Republicans in general ) are Free Traitors™ and Trump’s election has not changed them one bit. I’ve learned that to them, “Free Trade” is a religion.
We don’t even have the equipment to make the equipment anymore to any great extent.
All that got shipped to China in the 00’s.
Literally prised off factory floors, loaded on flatbed rail cars and sent to our port cities.
It will take years to undo the damage caused by free traitors.
I fully support show trials for free traitors.
China is ultimately responsible for 97% of our antibiotics. Even those made in India are made with ingredients from China.
Imagine we’d gotten into a hot war with China and no medical supplies (no OTC meds, no antibiotics, no prescription meds, etc...)
Even vaccines made here use ingredients from China.
