Well now we have to decide what we have to do with China. The gorilla in the room is how this administration wishes to deal with it and then how the American
people wish to Handle it. I do not believe economic sanctions are going to be enough
What do you suggest?
By the way, I imagine that Europe will do more business with China than America.
I don't understand why we make so much medicine overseas.
Roosevelt was an old and sick man when the negotiations at Yalta happened and Stalin took advantage of him. That is a warning for the nation and a possible Biden presidency.
What happens when we are in a war or an emergency like now and our medicine is trapped overseas?
And how do we know that the purity of the overseas production is good?
We have a pork plant in Indiana--Indiana Kitchen.
Maybe they could step up production and fill the gap.
There is a lot of hog farming in north central Indiana.
Good point. Businesses however will go where the production costs are cheaper, and that is overseas. Yes, the
critical stuff should be made here, so be prepared to pay more for those meds.
Only if you exclude the Lord from the equation. Communist China is openly a persistent enemy of the gospel. America has had a very long period of leadership that has chosen not to acknowledge and rely upon the Lord. The leadership of this current administration is the closest to acknowledging the Lord as I have seen in my lifetime. Which is why it has been attacked so viciously from both the enemies without and from the well established enemies from within.
I plainly testify to what I see. It is not my burden to do anything beyond that. In all my time on the BB, I have not seen this forum have a tendency to unite the members. It has consistently proven to be a battleground for the myriad of differing Theologies. Therefore, I merely testify to what I see.
George W. Bush was a Methodist and a recovering alcoholic.
Ronald Reagan was a Christian although he did not attend church while in the White House.
George H.W. Bush was a lifelong Episcopalian and knew a lot of Scripture by heart and had gone to war and been shot down as a pilot before he was 18.
If we taxed international goods according to a comparable level of treatment of workers and the environment, perhaps everything would be made in the USA, but at least not in China or India or Mexico.
Nobody is burdening you... my question was very straight forward.
However if you feel you are not seeing a united front then you would be sadly mistaken from a Belief in God standpoint. Each person believes in a triune god, one who operates as Lord & Savior to the believer.... therefore we as the participants of BB never (almost never anyway) never question one another’s salvation. So we are all unified in that.
Now doctrine, dogma and theology are divergent but not very critical so yes you will see differences of opinion and even heated conflict.... and my personal view is conflict is healthy.
