  1. People are dying by thousands, world economy in depression, still no cure exists.
    Covid19 virus came from China. 400k plus people went to US from mostly infected China.
    It cost so much damage even worse then any diversion...
    Should China be accountable and pay the price?

  2. China won't pay ANY price.

    They will just tell the world, FU!

    The CCP has no qualms whatsoever about killing or allowing to die 100 Million people in order hide any truth and/or to promote their agenda.

    The CCP is no less evil than Hitler, Stalin, or any other of history's worst bad actors.

  3. Well, how about to change supply sources to Vietnam, etc.
    Penalize them economically. A few steps at the time, slowly but surely....
    Much cheaper then spend trillions of dollars now.

    This is about as effective as the EU telling the US it should pay for Big Mac causing obesity or whatever.
     
  5. American business has no morals. They only look for the best deal for themselves... low price labor? Other restrictions or lack thereof.

    Changing production sources is a big deal at a big cost. Companies weigh factors and go with that which is best for their bottom line. All other considerations are mostly irrelevant.

  8. First we have a choice to select Vietnam for example.
    Second companies already paid unprecedented price.
    Thirdly because of medical supply shortage we were penalized.
    We will move out slowly but surely.
