China Threatens to Cut Off Medicine, Throw America into ‘Mighty Sea of C****av***s’
How did we ever reach the point where we allow China to have leverage over us in the area of pharmaceutical drugs.

Well, try lots of regulations, taxes, law suits, the EPA.

Speaking of law suites, do you remember John Edwards, Senator from NC, a lawyer
who made millions suing pharmaceutical corps, driving 8 of them out of America.
This practice has driven many other companies out of America, try buying a bench grinder that's made in America, or a TV, or a cell phone. GE moved all it's Cat Scan
making faculty's to China, k*****g lots of good jobs and putting the technology at risk as have many others giving China massive leaps in technology.

China Threatens to Cut Off Medicine, Throw America... (show quote)


China gave us this v***s and now threatens to keep the cure away from us ??
Sounds like an act of war to me.

We should not be dependent on any other country and should avail ourselves to be sure we are not... Live and learn, and opportunity not to be missed.

We’ve done it before we can do it again!
It's really short sighted for the Chinese to make such a threat. Not too long ago OPEC had us over a barrel with oil and then the US weaned itself off of OPEC. The same thing might happen with China with its pharmaceuticals and rare earth minerals....

Not the end of the world if we turned it wrecked into a positive for our country and to hell with any of the others!

I can understand why drug companies moved manufacturing their drugs to China. Just like everything else, it was cheeper to manufacture them there. We used to require that certain countries could not export drugs here.What happened.?
Merk had a big drug manufacturing operation in Purto Rico. What happened to that? I haven't hear a thing since Hurricane Maria.

Money, that's what happened. With the right amount of money and undeclared stuff ( such as stock options, vacation homes, etc. ) anything can be purchased from congress, including changing the laws.

Sigh... Did you read the article put out by Xinhua news? No? Why am I not surprised?

This is like when one spokesman puts out one tweet asking whether the American military could have played a part in spreading the v***s in China... Then it gets reported that this is official Chinese policy...
(I'm guessing you didn't get the full story in that tweet either...Surprise)

Try to understand things before you freak out... Panic is very unbecoming at the best of times....

No nation should be dependent on another for something as vital as medical supplies...

America I not alone in this... Canada and the EU are feeling it too...

I do enjoy the irony of the side (righties) who have always been so firm concerning free market trade, suddenly realizing that there should be limits to it

To me, it looks like what Rome did to itself 2200+ years ago. They ruled the world but for a very long time, but rot on the inside took them out. We have lots of rot inside and many are on this site.

Changes are good and needed given what we have all gone through here.. Focusing on perfecting our Epidemic catastrophe plans obviously a must~~

As for executions~~ oh what I could say.😉🤭
