Such a “false dawn” could become apparent soon, Zhuang said, noting that since the virus began to spread around the world in mid-March, demand from rest of the world for Chinese goods has dropped. He expects China’s industrial production and exports could worsen in April or May.

The lockdown is effectively a de facto trade embargo against Chinese products and investments in the West.

“Made in China” is a label that can be found on many products that fill the shelves of our stores. Goods produced in China have gradually become an integral part of our marketplace. Cheap labor helps to create products that are more affordable for the consumer. The list of products that are manufactured is extensive.

Might the neocons see Covid-19 as a “politically useful tool”? John Mearsheimer has explained why the destruction of the globalized world economy would be necessary for the U.S. to hold onto its primacy:

“In brief, if China continues its rapid economic growth it will almost certainly become a superpower which means it will build the power-projection capability necessary to compete with the United States around the globe. (If China) merely continues growing economically, it will eventually become so powerful that it can just get its way in Asia. Its hegemony will be a fait accompli. What is America’s best strategy for preventing China from dominating Asia? …All of this tells us the United States has a profound interest in seeing Chinese economic growth slow considerably in the years ahead. That outcome might not be good for American prosperity, much less for global prosperity but it would be good for American security which is what matters most.”

So, the hypothesis that the neocons are trying to stop the rise of China, and further punish Iran, through Covid-19, seems reasonable. They may not have expected it to spread beyond the targeted countries, go global, and affect the U.S. It is hard to know for sure what a mutating virus will do. But they may also have envisioned this possibility and perhaps even welcomed it, since it provides a pretext for the further militarization of the U.S. as well as the destruction of the globalized economy that is the engine of China’s rise.

I’m in Las Vegas and this shutdown is going to have catastrophic consequences. Our economy is a boom and bust economy and we always get it the worst during recessions. On top of that we are the suicide capital of the United States. Small businesses and restaurants are in serious trouble.

  The jews hate small goy businesses, and are using this Cohenavirus hoax to crush them. In the end, if Khazaria gets its way, America will be:
  
  –five giga-banks,
  –five agribusinesses,
  –Walmart,
  –Amazon and
  –Apple.
  
  I can say this, on a positive note, that I have spoken with five “normie” people here in town who agree with me that the whole thing is a crock.

    I like how more people are waking up and I like what the Last Vegas mayor had to say. She’s right.
