Zone1 Is China destroying America without firing a shot?

Why risk an armed conflict when you can destroy your enemy's from the inside?
Synthetic opioids remain the source of the deadliest U.S. drug epidemic ever. Since 1999, drug overdoses have killed approximately 1 million Americans,1 an overdose lethality that has increased significantly since 2012 when synthetic opioids from China began supplying the U.S. demand for illicit opioids.

Even though China placed the entire class of fentanyl-type drugs and two key fentanyl precursors under a controlled regulatory regime in May 2019, it remains the principal (if indirect) source of U.S. fentanyl

None of this (or less anyway) would be happening if we stopped producing kids who, in turn, produce other kids, who in turn produce other kids. Yeah, I know, sometimes a 16 y/o single mom can raise a kid on her own who becomes a Rhodes Scholar or whatever. Most of these kids are born with a strike against them, absentee fathers, and mothers who have never wanted to be a mother at that age.

The nation suffers from decay because the family unit is crumbling. No Chinese (or anyone else) can force you to take an illicit drug, get addicted, and scream for more.

How can anyone say another country is trying to destroy us when we have Joe in the White House? Even Obama said if you want something fucked up send in Joe. From Joe's first day in office one can only believe Obama was right.

China is destroying America in every way possible; the drugs are just one of many ways. They run Biden, and used the Democrats to help spread a deadly virus worldwide — to cheat in the 2020 Presidential election.

When a “political party” becomes that murderous, China can use them to do [anything] to their own citizens.

The article correctly points out that Mexico is the direct vector for illicit street fentanyl, not China. The chemicals are purchased from China by Mexican drug cartels and "drug cookers", that sell their drugs to the Mexican cartels. More, the American demand for these drugs is also to blame, and if you look at why so many Americans are hooked on these drugs, you'll find bad economic policies, as in crony capitalism that serves the vested interests of the wealthy at the expense of working-class people as one of the culprits. When America's national infrastructure is crumbling and the cost of living is through the roof and people are financially stressed, and almost a million Americans are homeless, you can expect in an increase in substance abuse. The Mexican drug cartel is more than happy to meet that demand. Here is the communist solution.

You make the selling of hard narcotics, like illicit street fentanyl a capital crime. That includes those who are smuggling i.e. transporting, the drugs for the dealers. You send them to the gallows or put them before a firing squad for poisoning and killing people with a lethal substance. You decriminalize drug addiction and force those who can't kick the habit into drug rehab or a mental institution. So you lift the criminal stigma and burden off of the addict but you force him or her to get the help they need. If addicts are homeless, you don't release them from drug rehab or the psyche ward, back into the streets. You provide them with housing and the assistance they need to get back on their feet. If they go back to abusing drugs, they are re-institutionalized, until they're able to function as a normal, sane adult.

South of the border, you inform the Mexican government, that they have to eliminate the cartels and the flow of drugs into the United States. For example, Mexico could grant all its law-abiding citizens the right to keep and bear arms. A Mexican equivalent of the American second amendment. Then allowing the Mexican people to eliminate the cartels working in collaboration with Mexican law enforcement and the military. Mexican citizen militias, armed and trained by US special forces and law enforcement, working in tandem with the Mexican authorities, would go into the rural areas that are currently controlled by the cartels and eliminate the armed thugs and drug-cooking operations.

It would be a massive search-and-destroy operation, taking control of those areas away from the cartels and their drug-cookers (the "drug cookers are sometimes "independent contractors" with their own little armies of thugs). In urban centers, the people would also organize counter-cartel, armed citizen militias, in collaboration with local law enforcement and the military, to conduct search and destroy missions against cartel members and infrastructure.

The citizens will have the right to arm themselves, with combat rifles and pistols, with the right to carry these weapons both openly and concealed. Neighborhood crime watch teams comprised of good, law-abiding, concerned Mexican citizens, under the authority and supervision of local law enforcement, will keep their communities drug-cartel free and safe. Now is this even possible? Are Mexican authorities too corrupt to allow the above plan to be executed? I believe the above, nationwide effort is impossible in Mexico, without first purging its government of corruption. I doubt the Mexican government would even approve of such an effort, allowing its citizens the freedom to arm themselves and take the bull by the horns, getting rid of the cartels themselves., in collaboration with Mexican authorities and US - SF advisors (American Special Forces). I believe that unfortunately, what America has to do to eliminate the Mexican cartel threat, is either orchestrate a coup d'etat, by training and arming Mexican rebels or carry out a full-blown Iraq-style invasion.

I believe a full deployment is necessary and will be more likely to succeed than staging a coup (yes a war with Mexico is necessary). The US military needs to take control of the country, set up a new government, purge out all of the corrupt Mexican officials in bed with the cartels, and eliminate all of the cartels. America would then train and equip Mexicans to keep their country free of drug cartels. This would significantly, even completely stop the flow of drugs into America through our southern border. Recap:

• Make selling hard narcotics in the United States a capital crime and start executing dealers.
• Make the smuggling into and transport of such drugs in the United States a capital crime.
• Decriminalize drug addiction and classify it as a medical issue.
• Force drug addicts into rehab or mental institutions.
• House the homeless, providing them with the assistance they need to get back on their feet.
• Invade Mexico with 600K+ American troops, wiping out the cartels and replacing the current corrupt cartel-run government of Mexico with a government that is anti-cartel and will serve the interests of the Mexican people and of course be a friend of the USA. Our friendly Mexican neighbor.
• Mexican law must make drug-dealing or being a member of a cartel at any level, a capital crime. They must put them in front of a firing squad and kill them.

That's the American communist solution.

America is destroying itself. China is just providing assistance, is all. Money worship leads to degenerate behavior in other areas of social culture, same as syphilis leads to brain damage. Mindless self-indulgence is not a healthy value system. You can babble all the economic rubbish and normalizing of deviancy you want, then whine about the results.

That's how modern Communist China operates. They don't want armed conflict with America. Their plan is to slowly degrade to us until they are the world's economic superpower and we are their faithful customer for all they produce. It's death by a thousand cuts on a global scale.

Yeah right, let's blame the Chinese for all of our problems. Sure.

Why don't we stop closing our factories and moving them to China and Mexico? Restore America's manufacturing base and stop buying everything from China. Start buying MADE IN USA. Is China stopping us from doing that? We have plenty of resources in this country, why are we so dependent upon China? Cheaper labor? Cheaper products? Can't Americans trade cheap for quality? I'm willing to pay a bit more for an American-made product than for a cheaper, probably lower-quality, Chinese product. Chinese products have actually improved a lot since the 1980s and 90s. Nonetheless, as an American, I would rather buy American, even if I have to pay a bit more, even considerably more, I don't care. We need to restore our manufacturing base and stop blaming China for all of our problems.

If you want to blame someone, blame the greedy corporations that were willing to cannibalize the American economy, by moving to China with the intent of selling their Chinese-made products to the Americans they stripped of a good paying factory job, encouraging massive credit card debt for American consumers. Lowering wages and the standard of living for all Americans. Gutting America's manufacturing capacity like a fish in pursuit of profits.
