Epidemic Reveals America's Weakness

[skews13]

The United States of America is a weak country. All the flag-waving, patriotic speeches and obtuse declarations of superiority have long seemed overly conspicuous — and history has no sympathy for the delusional. It continually exposes the vulnerability, fragility and inanity of a nation that has the wealth, resources and human intelligence to cultivate a magnificent civilization, but repeatedly sacrifices the common interest and public good on the altar of avarice.


Home of the brave? Coronavirus epidemic reveals America's weakness

You can't fix stupid, but a virus can certainly get rid of a lot of it.

I remember studying US history and how it was an isolationist nation and didnt want to meddle in other countries wars. Back then we did everything ourselves and relied on no one to take care of US, by making our own Autos, medicine, food, you get the drift. Then after WWII and the UN(worthless organization) our elected liberal establishment leaders started selling us short on everything. No longer did we make our stuff in the US of A, but contracted out to Mexico, Japan, Taiwan, and other countries, because those countries were kicking back money to keep those fucking political hacks in power. Today, with the shortages of necessary equipment having to come from CHINA, the place that the virus came from, this is a good lesson to US and our needs to close the borders, become self sufficient and what ever we make over our needs, sell it as profits to other countries, thus having no trade imbalance.

How can you fools blame globalism on liberals when republicans invented Neo-Cons? Does being a republican somehow impair one's memory?

Yeah. I won't even remind them of who spread our legs to the Japanese auto market in the 80's.

You know, that union buster guy that gave all of those American manufacturers permission to move their plants to China, Mexico, and Canada?

What was that guys name again? Ronnie something. A real conservative he was.

In other news PROG-heads, the USA currently has one of the fewest number of cases per million despite an immigration and tourism second to none, and our mortality rate is currently a respectable 1.17%.

Fuck these PROG-Communists & GOD BLESS THE USA

The real mortality rate is about 0.2% because 86% of cases aren't reported.

What was that guys name again? Ronnie something. A real conservative he was.

Ronald Reagan And General Motors

It doesn't get mentioned much, but in 1981 the Reagan Administration asked Japanese automakers to impose a "voluntary export restraint" (VER), which capped at 1.68 million the number of cars Japan could send to the United States each year. Reportedly, this was under threat of an outright tariff, but the VER accomplished just about the same thing. Prices of Japanese cars went up, which allowed American manufacturers to raise their prices too. (This was great for the protected industry -- in the short run -- and bad for the American consumer.)

Yeah, that President Reagan sure did fuck over those American Companies, didnt he? Oh, wait, "great for the protected industry", which was bad for the American Consumer, because the US products made by unions sucked, while the Japanese models were better quality. I know, because my father, rest his soul, for the longest time said "Keep the money in America" and bought GM products all the way up to his retirement, got his 1st Cadillac, and returned in in 1 year, never to buy a shit product from a union ever again. His last car was a Lexus....

When unions work by contract, they can never make a great product because the contract says "no more, no less" that is mediocre.

America's weakness was listening to Globalist idiots (Socialists/Communists)

That shit has ended. Too bad it took some batshit soup to slam the door on globalization.

It's done now. The borders are finally sealed. The dependence on our medicines and medical supplies on Socialist/Communists countries has been exposed. The media can't defend the realities that's been exposed.

Trump warned you about shithole countries. Libtardos can't make America in to one now.

MAGA

It's a lot more complicated than that, Ricky. I don't think this has ended globalization or sealed our borders for good. That is your dream, but it hasn't happened and it isn't going to happen. Hopefully we have learned some lessons from this, but unless YOU want to turn this into a government controlled economy like the communists, you won't be controlling big business, or big banking, and we need to take advantage of globalization, not try to hide from it. It's not going to go away.

Don't underestimate this wake up call. Letting China manufacture 90% of our medicine and medical supplies has ended now. Even an idiot knows he can't fight a war against the entity that sells you your bullets. Americans will no longer let that happen. This is a sea change. We will get back to manufacturing again. The Socialist/Communist countries economies won't be able to compete like we let them for decades. You've been dumbed down over the years. You don't want to die because you cut your ass falling down and not get the antibiotics because China won't sell them to you.

I hope we do get back to manufacturing. But how do we compete with the cheap labor over there? I don't think I've been dumbed down. I'm being realistic.

Until the Wuhan Virus came out, more manufacturing was coming back to the US, which was chased away by liberal regulations and union extravagance. Unions have over lived their usefulness, and are just the thuggery of the Demoncrap party...

_________

Yes, you have been dumbed down.

You don't buy critical items from your enemy because you can save a little bit of money by putting our US labor force out of work.

Its like not selling oil and steel to Hitler during World War II and counting on him to supply us with ammunition.

Trump understood this years ago. That's why he ran for President---the knowledge that a few greedy capitalist/globalist in New York, New England and California were selling out the Heartland for a buck to China and Mexico.

Ross Perot understood it before Trump.

And, everybody except real Dumb-Asses will come to understand it now. Where are you?

Paywall/Ad blocker so I can’t read the link, while I agree this has revealed our biggest weakness, I doubt the Salon has come to the same conclusion I have.

Our nation is far too dependent on China for essential technology and pharmaceuticals. We need to raise more tariffs and move those industries here.

I’m going to take a wild guess and say Salon isn’t saying a peep about our dependence on China.

Tell us about the third major or fourth major party. there are not any. Voters get certain candidates pushed to them. Politicians have evolved from the realities of the changes over the decades. With the federal reserve, the federal income tax and the election of Federal Senators taken from the state legislatures, on December 7, 1941 the Republic died. Democracy was pushed and the American empire was birthed. But all fiat currencies are born and all fiat currencies die. Its just when.
