SARS Pt. 2 - Wuhan Boogaloo

[Smitty-48]

The only reason people to go to China is to access all the US dollars, Euros and Yens they are sitting on

If the Western World currencies collapse, that takes China down too

An attack is killing their best and richest customers, it makes no sense

Those customers don’t go anywhere. They just have to pay up for Chinese goods. They’ve already savaged their own manufacturing, to save money.

Also, I don’t know where you got the idea that yuan is pegged to anything. One of Trumps biggest complaints was that they manipulate currency values freely. The yuan is pegged to the whim of the CCP.

So if I’m the CCP, I just enjoy the collapse, and start offering loans/buying bonds whenever they’re available. My currency goes out into the world worth less, and comes back as a premium paper.

If I’m really going nuclear, I just hint that container ship crews are nervous about visiting foreign ports.

Don't have to go to China for 3D printers and America is the world leader in 3D printing not China

You ain’t 3D printing a million tons of goods.

Only commodities are heavy goods, don't need to go to China for them, China comes to us for them

There's enough commodities in Canada alone to keep America topped up

Information is the most valuable commodity, there is actually a surplus of heavy goods, hence why trade war

Suppose I should have said a million cubic feet of goods?

Even America's industrial might is still greater than China's

Yes, America is 3D printing everything now, they are 3D printing space ships in Texas now

But the industrial manufacturing is underpinned by the MICC

America still produces more planes, trains, automobiles & ships, by a considerable margin

The POTUS just directed GM to produce ventilators at maximum output under the DPA, MICC in action

National Mobilization for Biological Warfare, this is why we MICC

[Smitty-48]

This will follow the same pattern of all America's wars

At the outset, America is caught off guard

Then the sleeper awakes as the MICC goes to war

By the end of the war America's war production dwarfs the competition

My wife's firm was actually sputtering before the outbreak of this war

Now all of a sudden they have been declared Essential for the War Effort

Now they have more work than they can handle

MICC FTW

There are winners & losers in every war, Information Warfare Military Contractors are booming right now

[SuburbanFarmer]

So America rushes back to the factories, and China begins to finance their efforts. The reversal takes hold.

Not quite, because it is the Information Age so now those factories don't need the workers

All you need is a skeleton staff to assemble the fiddly bits, the rest is automated

Most of the money work is like what my wife does, Information Work

She's booming right now, but not as Rosie the Riveter, she works in her pajamas from home.

My son is 17. 18 this summer. His girlfriend has moved in with us for the time being. Her mother has just gone through chemo and is back home. Girlfriend doesn't want to be totally isolated and she doesn't want to expose her mother to infections so we have a third child for now.

Have you done any prepping or just business as usual ?

We are stocked up pretty fine. We're working from home. If I need to shop I try to take every precaution.
Lots of long walks in the forest with the dog.
