The silver lining in this Corona virus debacle is that it’s finally opening many American’s eyes on the dangerous position we’re in having outsourced many products to China that could endanger our national security.

Being dependent on them for antibiotics is one thing, but most-
don’t know just how much of our military hardware & tech is manufactured, at least in part, by China.

For a great thought exercise on where this could lead, you should read Ghost Fleet:

Ghost Fleet: A Novel of the Next World War amazon.com/dp/054470505X/…

The premise is that-
a USA dependent on Chinese manufacturing (check) had backdoors & malware inserted into much of our military operating systems, allowing China to essentially “flip a switch“ and render it all useless.

Think that sounds far-fetched?

We’ve already caught the, doing something -
extremely similar:

Moreover, we’ve done the same thing to insert spyware into other nations.
Whoever made the decision to outsource our military tech & production to China should be investigated very closely - this is beyond reprehensible.

Thankfully there are some good people in the Senate who are demanding the FDA explain how we became so dependent on a single, not-
so friendly nation for all of our antibiotics.

A not-so-friendly nation who happens to have biowarfare capabilities.
