[QUOTE="LE BARON, post: 199216, member: 3515"] Anyone who is in business, or really just even working for someone else, is about getting money from someone else - your employer, your customer, etc.. Just hopefully it is for a commensurate service that you are offering. After all every country wants to sell their mined/manufactured/service goods to someone else. The US has been one of the largest industrialized nations for quite some time. They didn't do it by selling things to themselves. US expertise was of high value until they started to offshore that expertise. We used to say "JAP CRAP" back in the sixties for all the plastic junk coming out of Japan at the time. They learned fast and now their products are some of the most sought after for its quality. But even they surcumbed to manufacturing pressure and off shored to China and S. Korean. China has a ways to go but they are fast learners. We can debate how much they have "learned" versus "stole" on the industrial side but that is irrelevant now. Calling the Covid-19 virus a Chinese virus will do nothing to help people work together to control it. Hopefully one day we might realize that there is only one world but it takes just one idiot to push a button to end our (human) epoch on it. The world will still be here, we just won't be able to drive our Corvettes. [/QUOTE]
