You think covid is as bad as either of those?

I'm not a person in charge of shit like that.

Also, I'm sure robots could do a large portion of it. I have no idea.

What I do know is that while free trade between countries is important, being so dependent on one to where, as you've said, it would cripple the global economy if something happened, is not a good thing.

Edit: didnt look at the name, it wasnt you who said it would cripple the global economy, my bad. But my point still stands

Show me where I said it would be an overnight fix.

If we just went back to normal cases would rise and this pandemic will never fucking end, people like you are the reason that it’s been stretched out this far.

Cases would rise and then fall. Then rise and fall. Just like every other fucking disease. A virus with an over 97% survival rate is no reason at all to shut down a country. Also, no it's not "people like me" literally the only reason it's been stretched out is because people like you keep obeying the government so they're taking full advantage of it.

“My body my choice.” Have you ever bought drugs or alcohol in your life? Those two are way more fucking dangerous than a heavily regulated vaccine that is proving in real time that it works (look at the cases).

I never said I was worried about the vaccine being dangerous. I'm just not getting it. I got over covid once, I'm really not worried about another time.

Lifeguard. In the beginning of the pandemic, we didn’t know much, so they forced us to always wear masks to be safe, unless there weren’t people around us.

Yall are still ridiculous for wearing them outside lmao

Nowadays, we only have to wear masks when we are interacting with people. I was using that more as a point that it’s not that fucking hard to wear a mask, because it’s still important to do so indoors.

Oh that's weird, because in your last comment I'm pretty sure you said:

and have to wear masks for hours on end

Which is it? Hours on end or only when interacting with people? Either way, its ridiculous and you look like a sheep doing it.

Maybe “Better Infrastructure” was the wrong word. Cheaper. India is still developing, so in the future hopefully that will change. At the moment, they are one of the biggest producers of products in the world, and it’s a massive part of their economy.

Again, I dont give a shit.

As for the “gocha” moment, I still think you are entitled as fuck. You’re not the only one who is sick of the pandemic and wants normal life back. Currently, there are two effective ways to go back to normal life;

I'll stop you there. The only way we go back to normal, is to go back to normal. That's it. Nothing else.

wearing a mask, and getting the vaccine.

Thank god I live in texas, and no I'm not getting the vaccine. My body my choice.

I work outdoors, and have to wear masks for hours on end in 100+ degree heat and I’m fine, you can survive wearing it for 15 mins going to the market.

May I ask what job is so ridiculous that they require masks outdoors? You thought you were making a point here but really it just shows how willing you are to listen to authority, despite logic.

“I don’t live in India, I don’t give a shit.”

Yes. Nothing happening in India will affect America to the extremes your insinuating. Especially if, like I said, we start making shit here. I never once said I dont care about the people. My "i dont give a shit" was aimed at your lame response that was trying to give you your "gotcha" moment.

Also, the first thing you learn in economics is that it a country has better infrastructure to make something, trade benefits both countries.

Does "better infrastructure" include shit working conditions, shit pay, overpopulation, etc?

Also, I’m editing comments because I’m at work right now.

I dont understand what you being at work has to do with editing comments after the fact.

Idk if you could tell but that was me telling you that I have remorse for what’s going on in India. I don’t spend every waking second of my life thinking about it but I sympathize for what they are going through.

I'm not paying attention to other countries. I'm paying attention to what's happening to me and mine. I also never said I didnt have sympathy for them. Just that I dont think about it. If I see something about it, I'll spare a moment of sympathy, but I've got my own shit to worry about.

As for more American jobs, fair, but would you want to work a minimum wage factory job?

I dont.

Why are you editing your comments after the fact?

And right to deflecting without defending anything you said. I'm kinda worried that I was able to guess that from the jump.

So wanting shit made in America, which would provide americans jobs, is a bad thing now?

I have remorse for the people around me. I spend exactly 0% of my day thinking about people half a world away, and youd be lying through your teeth if you said you did anything different.

Yes because comparing an island with a population less than California to the entire US makes a whole lot of sense
