As opposed to that dumbfuck Trump, you get our allies on board to tell the Commie bastards to cut this shit out and start implementing standard food health standards or else we are going to start sending our business somewhere else. Then you go to Mexico, Latin America, and other parts of Asia and say, we are done doing business with those fucks. Let's sign treaties so we can build factories in your countries and put your people to work (so they don't want to come here) because we don't want to deal with those Commie SARS fucks again. Then you tax the fuck out of you asshole tech guys who are activing supporting a totalitarian regime.

Boom. Done. US and allies win. Everyone else but the Commie bastards win. Commie bastards sending tanks back into Tiennamin Square.

"or else we are going to start sending our business somewhere else" I see. I didn't know that Tim Cook was the US President, and Samsung's CEO was the Head of State of Korea.

This before we get into the fact that China is now becoming too expensive and the factories are all moving to Vietnam anyway.

And you don't think there are factories in Mexico? And that maybe it doesn't matter if it's "permitted" to build a factory in Ciudad Juarez because LG maybe doesn't want to set up shop in "the most violent zone in the world outside of declared war zones". And maybe the workers there don't care if there is a job because of that whole "violent zone" thing and just want to get out?

Trump is such an asshole he failed to get anyone else on board to join us. That was his error, among many.
If the Chinese are stealing our technology, and that's bad, and Trump and Biden aren't going to do anything about it, how is the status quo in all the tech assholes best economic interest, as you say?

I like steak. Not tube steak. Steak steak. USDA inspected steak.

USDA inspected steak. Because health inspection practices.

Go read Fast Food Nation.

Taxation policies are strong motivators, you should know that.

As our friend Old97 would make very clear, taxation is the biggest invasion of human rights there is.

I mean, I agree with you on this point, but you're repeatedly disagreeing with yourself

By this measure, we can just disband our military because if someone invades us, it's their fault for being assholes.

I'm really trying to figure out what your end game is here anyway? What is the theory, that we should write them a ticket for a health code violation? Yell at them on TV? Trump yelled at them for four years, what did that get us?
Maybe do it in Alaska ? We could give them what for again in front of world wide media ? That worked well, and now they've banned Manchin's wife in China and Hong Kong before she could give them a piece of her mind.
Or maybe this story from a year ago that the media buried as 'it's a conspiracy'.

C'mon Murph, you can do better than this. You are at the Judge Judy Line, the Mendoza Line for posting, in this thread.

Do you think they give a shit?

All of this is kabuki anyway. One way or the other, a virus was spreading around the world. Regardless of how this ball started rolling, the number one goal at that point is to STOP THAT BALL. Throwing a tantrum and spreading conspiracy theories about CHINA does nothing towards that end. If Xi got on TV and said "Yep, we manufactured the virus and let it loose!" that would not end this pandemic nor bring back the 450,000 dead Americans we could have saved with trivial measures.

Maybe whatever you guys have in your system was contagious and Ayo got it in the Loyola game - "If they just hadn't hired John Groce we wouldn't be sitting here behind at halftime. Why aren't they doing something about  the whole Groce fiasco!"

Once again - see 1:00 in this one

Doubling down I see. Of course something would/should be done about it. Spreading conspiracy theories? You’re a fucking moron if you don’t think it came from there. Why do you think they’re killing people, trying to not let us investigate, or let anyone worth a shit into their country to look at it? People like you are what’s wrong with our country and China wouldn’t hesitate to cut your head off after your kind let’s them take over the world. You’re a fucking idiot! Why are you defending China?!
I didn’t know that. Thanks!

Talk about straw men....we were not discussing the response. We know it was and, it appears continues to be, shit because Trump transported us back to 1860 "States Rights" time. That was not the point, apparently, of the 60 Minutes piece. We were discussing origination and future prevention by requiring the Commie bastards to actually require safe food handling protocols as a price of being part of the international community.

Someone in China was selling bats/pangolins/etc... in a wet market, which is some bad shit. Somehow in the custody chain between catching the bat and a customer and consumption or whatever, a virus made the jump to humans and there you go, a pandemic.

Occam's razor.

That's not a defense or non defense of China.
