      think of shit people actually need.

      band aids? China

      Peroxide and Rubbing alcohol? China

      gauze? China

      IV tubing and equipment? China

      This ain’t a, “I can’t buy fruitless shit anymore” kinda crisis.

      It’s the big one, homie.

        So, is this not a wake up call for every country to not be reliant on one or do you believe everything should be made in China?

          I don’t believe our system with China was sustainable even before Trump. Can already stressed Americans handle high prices and no relief from their employers or government, and no stock for the next 10 years until we get manufacturing in gear, not that we will?
