    Of course the answer is yes.

    The question is a bit complicated because degenerates like Fauci helped fund COVID, but nevertheless, China was in charge of the Wuhan "Institute" where COVID clearly originated.

    Small businesses were literally butchered and put out of business by lockdowns and the "mega rich" people (the ones liberals love to pretend to hate) like Bezos cashed in on the lockdowns.

    And now we're faced with a genetically modified virus that can adapt to vaccines and continue to infect people to the extent liberals get their panties in a wad and want to lock down and mandate masks again.

    This CANNOT go on indefinitely. I will NOT shop at a store in the future that requires a mask, and I avoided them during the lockdowns to the extent possible.

    Liberals would love this to go on indefinitely because it gives them power over the ever-growing number of stupid voters who will surrender their rights in exchange for the illusion of "safety".

    At some point, China has to bear fiscal responsibility. And our American counterparts that snuck the funding to them should be charged with manslaughter for every single case of COVID that resulted in a death.

    It clearly came from China. It clearly came from the Wuhan Institute of Virology (COVID Studies).

    They need to pay up. Who's going to defend Biden's Chicom Masters in this? Let's see...

    Note to mods: This should be in Political Opinion......

    In what form do you envision this "payment"?

    Cancellation of US Treasuries owed to the Chinese government, for one.

    Sanctions, holding our US-Chinese treasuries, etc. Of course, the punitive response will likely lead to a Cold War-ish standoff with the Chinese but we're already there anyway. And of course as a Nationalistic citizen, I blame China for the tensions that arise as a result.

    Biden and his crackhead, pedophile, stripper-impregnating, deadbeat dad, Navy washout, Ukrainian board member, Chicom-investment-manager, disgruntled "half to the Big Guy" employee, are in bed with the Chinese. They have culpability, too. By their own standards.

    If a preponderence of the evidence shows it escaped from a lab, then yes. I don't have the knowledge to know what that restitution should be, but they absolutely should be held responsible if it's shown to be more likely that the virus didn't just emerge naturally.

    Liked for honesty. It looks more and more like it came from the lab. In fact, there is NO evidence it didn't.

    Democrats today blocked legislation requiring the national intelligence details on the origin of COVID be declassified.

    So you're scared of holding China responsible. Noted.

    I think cancelling $1 trillion of Chinese held US treasuries would be a great start. Biden spent more than that killing the economy, which of course is his fault, not he Chinese's fault. China should pay globally for unleashing a pandemic. They killed 4 million people and liberals think that number is a great political point and nothing more.

    One doesn't need a degree in virology to trace it. One can use context clues.

    The virus unequivocally came from the Wuhan district, where the Wuhan Institute is located.
    The Wuhan Institute, in papers, admits to experimenting with gain of function on COVID viruses. You can ignore this or claim "coincidence", but it just makes you look incredibly stupid.
    No natural source of COVID-19 has been found (poor Chinese bats - I bet they're being killed left and right to try and find the elusive COVID-19 precursor, lol).

    Democrats called Trump xenophobic for wanting to limit travel from Asia. They're culpable, too. The DNC should be sued as well.

    It came from China. This is known. Democrats are blocking a law to require the declassification of COVID origin data. Why? Because the sick bastards have something to hide.

    The ONLY question is how much should China reimburse the world?

    There is a fair amount of evidence that the virus is at least naturally occuring. So the question is whether it was being studied at the lab and escaped, or just emerged at the wet market (or something similar) as China claims. Unfortunately, that is all very cloudy. Most of what I've seen is just that the lab is there, they're studying coronaviruses, so it must have escaped from there. But the lab studies coronaviruses because that's what is there. It would be a little like a deer causing a crash on the highway and then blaming it on a deer crossing sign on that stretch of road.

    I honestly don't know, because I haven't looked, but how much is China obstructing investigation into the origins of the virus? I assume they aren't being very open. If that's the case, there should be sanctions against them. It's the equivalent of obstructing justice if they are doing anything to slow investigators from determining where the virus came from.

    China is fighting back. And of course China should pay, why shouldn't they?

    Why should you care? Your health care got better and cheaper, plus you saved $2500 on your insurance. You're golden.

    Thanks. Reading you OP I thought you were after something to help those hurt by the pandemic, but this is more about punishing China.

    That would probably be easier than helping those hurt by the pandemic.

    This seems the sort of thing we need a united front with many other countries for this to work, do you agree?

    Ya think?

    Definitely a good move to artificially pump up the view count by posting it in the wrong section.:bored:

    Anyway, in re the Opinion in the OP:

    I definitely agree that China should be made to pay for COVID.

    $7 Trillion seems fair (and equitable).

    How (exactly) would suggest that this sum be collected?

    They need to pay and they will, but not under Biden.

    Cancel all debt and if they have a problem they won't be able to sell to make up for losses from the US.

    The naturally created Virus was an accident .............. not man made.

    An accident of nature

    "It is probable, likely, that the virus is of animal origin," WHO spokeswoman Fadela Chaib said.

    Indeed. But irrelevant. My claim is not that there were no deaths and no lockdowns.

    Poor logic on your part. Our educational system definitely failed you.

    Needs to be a world wide effort. Does China care when people die in a factory? No. Does China care when their people die at all? No.

    If the world sits back and takes this then what will
    happen as China gets more powerful and gains more influence? This might have been a total accident. Maybe not. But what happens when they know they can easily get away with it.

    Remember. THEY tried to say it was planted in Wuhan by our military. The Chinese govt is EVIL. PURE EVIL!!! Sadly the only thing that can stop China is their own people rising up, like we did against England. But their propaganda, power and fear is too great.

    Nations are already fearful of China due to their economic reach and because we all know they could have easily unleashed the virus, knowing they have plenty of bodies to spare. The economic destruction on the world only benefits them. They know they can easily get through it because they easily control their people and have no one to answer to.

    The only way to punish China is pulling manufacturing out of there. It’s the only way. It’s their stranglehold on the world. Slave labor. Take the work away so the slaves revolt.
