Democrats are terrified of offending the Chinese government

[Jack]

Don’t you think that if a cluster of viral infections surrounding a wet market occurred here or in any western country that it would be immediately shut down and the cluster isolated and otherwise taken care of, before it spread?

True, that western cultures didn’t have wet markets but that’s beside the point.

The Chinese government OWNS this. The Chinese government doesn’t give two shits about its people. Probably thought it was a localized disease that might take a few tens of thousands in Wuhan, but no biggie, otherwise.

They are little more than sophisticated barbarians and it makes them dangerous in ways that even ‘the Russians!’ aren’t.

Cool. Send them a Bill.

What the fuck is wrong with you? They've known how dangerous those wet markets are for many years, if not then why did they close them down during the SARS epidemic in 2003, can you answer that?

Until China shuts down their wet markets, all Chinese immigrants should be placed in quarantine for two weeks before being allowed into the US or any western country.

The wet markets would be closed in a week. Communist governments can be brutally efficient—when properly motivated.

Don't need to, they reopened them as soon as the heat was off. That's what totalitarians do they don't need to listen to public opinion.

Sounds like we need to figure out how to protect ourselves, rather than waiting on China to protect us. Does that sound reasonable to you?

[Darth Omar]

Cancel our debt to China and call it even.

[Jack]

Jacky, Jacky, Jacky, what am I to do with you?

Read carefully, ‘the Chinese must be held accountable, ECONOMICALLY.’

So ... we DON'T sell them anymore soybeans?

The Shareholding Class thought it was a Great Idea to move the Industrial Production to Asia. 'You reap what you sow'.

Well unless you avoided buying stuff from Walmart, Costco and many others then you're part of it as well.

Pretty sure that would cancel out the words "Full Faith" in the US to pay it's Bills.
Maybe the Chinese Yuan, Russian Ruble, or Saudi Rial could take it's place?

I seem to recall when Trump was trying to renegotiate the hugely unfair tariffs you were vociferously against that!

We're both Stockholders benefitting from cheap Third World Asian Labor. Have you got your Quarterly Statement yet? Oh yes, we love our Dividends! But so quick to cry and point the finger.

Well, Jester, as usual, you're wrong again. I supported Trump's idea to confront China on it's unfair Trade Practices.

Canceling our China debt would be forcing China to pay theirs, Jacky.

Consider the irony of SJW’s babbling about how ‘unjust’ this country is when the electronic device in their hand was produced by slave labor in China.

Shouldn’t they refuse to own one? But then, how would they access Twitter to rage about social and economic injustice lol?

That would make US Debt 'Junk Bond' material. No one would know if they were going to get paid back.
(Earl, just curious, did you go to a historically Black College?)

Same story with Israel, how much Israeli know-how is there in the average phone/network, PC, laptop or server? Answer a lot!
