Leftits beat up frail blind defenseless old man who fought for the land they stand on

Well he's negative.

so, I read something on Reddit saying that President Trump had tried to buy a Coronavirus treatment/vaccine or something from a German lab for the US only... wondering if that's true? there has to be more information but I can't find it

Cures are still pretty far off

Like, at least half a year

it was for a vaccine

couldn't remember but i found articles about it

can only find the accusation from a "source" though, can't find any further info

the most important thing that should come out of the corona virus pandemic is the fact that global supply chains should not be trusted to be located in China

Vaccines are still quite far off

Honestly it's more that global supply chains are weak

diversification at the least

Not that they "shouldn't be trusted to be located in china", just that supply chains inherently present a risk of disruption

In a nation as large as the US, it's an issue here, too

A supply chain from, say, SoCal to Maine, would also be weak

If china had been very open about the virus to the world and allowed for medical teams to come in investigate this would have been controlled somehow

Not really

That's not the nature of illness

and i disagree, im a believer comparative advantage

but the US shouldnt rely on foreign countries on things like energy

Well sure, you produce more, but there's vulnerability is what I've been trying to say

yeah that is true

Global trade is generally a boon, though

i remember trump brought up something important when talking to germany

But it does have drawbacks

Ideally completely free trade, without tariffs, would be in place...

he was discussing how germany wants to be tough on russia, but they rely on 70% of there energy from russia

To maximize these advantages

Tariffs are only really important when industrializing, otherwise it's just a tax on your own consumers

and yeah, there's an issue with fossil fuel reliance

We need to transition to nuclear ASAP

but yeah a big problem with this is 80% of US medication iirc relies on china

But free markets 'n' all

The vulnerabilities are generally worth the advantage

I know it's still far off but a lot of people are making accusations that he tried to monopolize the vaccine in development and I’m trying to find some more info because it doesn't sound right
