We shouldn't even allow Chinese imports ever again. Fuck that country.

100% Embargo!

China is currently facing total blackouts in its major cities and energy is being rationed. Why? Because they are no longer receiving coal imports from Australia. China is a country that can't sustain itself. If other countries stopped selling oil and food to China, they would face a complete societal collapse.

China likes to act tough, but they have a very fragile economy that will come crashing down if other countries push them too hard. They are basically Imperial Japan in the 1930s; they need territorial expansion to survive. But Japan had a formidable Navy, China does not.

Now you know why China unleashed the Kung Flu on the world and why China is bribing and blackmailing journalists and politicians left and right to stop Trump from getting a second term. Trump can't be bought by China money, and he will be in a position to stop China from becoming the world's main superpower, something they've been working towards for over 50 years.

I wish I could buy 100% made in usa, but that's near impossible. It's hard though, because made in China is cheap, and the majority of people can't afford to spend more. I try to avoid Walmart at all costs. I refuse to use Amazon. I will not give that bald cuck a cent. It pissed me off when people complain about billionaires, but have Amazon deliveries twice a week. Fucking retards should have their rights striped.

Hell yes.

Some ground rules. Reality is. Sometimes, you do not have a choice. Okay.

Rule #1: Do you really need it? --- Often times yes, but if you really look back do you really need that shit you are gonna buy? Can you buy on the cheap from someone local? Or build or repurpose something else?

Rule #2: Try to reduce Chinese footprint as much as possible -- What does that look like? Do not buy directly from a Chinese platform (Alibaba). Do not buy from a Chinese seller or re-seller. You can see the tell-tale signs from the product description and store/seller name.

Rule #3: Buy from US if you can. Or buy from countries who hate China -- Again. This is hard because China has their honey pot all over the world. The more complex the product, the harder it is to get away from China's bull shit influence. The simpler the product, the easier.

I made a similar post, and someone commented that american was more expensive. I'm sitting here thinking, being cheap is the reason we are losing jobs overseas.

Pyrex makes glass measuring cups "Proudly made in the USA."

https://www.pyrexware.com/search?q=Measuring%20Cup

They come in several sizes. You might be able to find them locally in a hardware store or someplace like Bed Bath & Beyond.

I've been seeing a lot of things with a visible "Designed in USA!" on the packaging, and if you look closer there's a semi-legible "Made in China" or some other country elsewhere in small print!

This!!! Never buy anything made in China! USA made is the way to go immediately!

We sadly don't have the manufacturing to sustain that. Any time we get close certain groups pull shit like COVID to knock us back down in the dirt.
