I cannot blame China for not sending equipment that they needed.

Any country would do the same.

But this is a great wake up for distributed manufacturing and bringing key manufacturing back to the US.

Yes costs will rise, but we either pay for higher manufacturing costs or we pay as we do now, for lower manufacturing costs and high social services taxes on an idle population.

we pay, one way or another

Now is the time to reform the legal system, which has also driving manufacturing offshore. These large lawsuits driven by leftist lawyers are killing innovation and risk in this country.

Trump is playing multi dimensional chess. This virus hysteria is giving him cover to continue decoupling the US from China. He knew the petro dollar was on its last legs when he took office. Thats why his first state visit was to Saudi Arabia to discuss what was coming. This oil blowout is the collapse of the petro dollar. With the US dollar no longer the reserve currency of the world we need to create other ways to keep US dollars flowing back into the US. So made in America is coming back bigtime folks😆 Trump is now putting the coup de grace on the EU. Notice the UK is not included in the travel ban. There is much much more going on here than the flu folks.

"Not worth it IMO."

I agree, but then I don't have several job offers and a bonus that's based on how many pennies per dollar I save this year.

Price wise though....before the ‘signing’ I could buy 4 bulbs (any watt) for $1.00 at Dollar General.

Price is around $1.00 a bulb which is higher but then again hamburger is about $4.00 a pound too. I admit I have had some of these bulbs fail quite rapidly but overall I am quite happy with them.

There are a lot of rural areas with populations that would be quite happy to fill these jobs. Ditto with the inner city.

The low flow toilets are inferior. I have both in my house, and old and a newer one. LED lights are less expensive, but the quality of the light is atrocious. I purchased 12 for my dining chandelier, sent them back the next day. They are white white, the incandescents have a warm yellow glow like the sun. They work great for a closet or a hallway, but not for bedrooms, living rooms, dining room, kitchen or bath. They work great outside though, and in the garage.

B$, you just want to argue. You are untruthful on both points, or just suffering from new stuff syndrome.
