Starting to think that the direction we have taken in response to
the corvin-19 virus pandemic may be a huge mistake but the damage
is done and is permanent.

I also am beginning to think that China and Russia are taking
full advantage of our cultural dilemma ... a cultural dilemma
neither of them have or share.

We put a high value on a human life
and saving every life possible is of the highest priority.

Their priorities are much more emotionless. It's an economic
calculation, not a moral one.

Anyway, I don't think China (or Russia) are responsible for
purposely starting this pandemic but I suspect that
both are taking full advantage of it through disinformation
to cause the total collapse of the US economy.

Scary times, if so.

At least you are starting to embrace the scary possibilities.
China may want to have their currency be the standard of global
commerce.
Nothing would help them more than people losing the "full faith and
credit" of the dollar.
