A lot of things could be brought back to the states and still make money on it.

Toyota makes the tundra and they seem to eat pretty good.

The company I work for makes things in the United states and we are doing very well. We are expanding due to once this bullshit is over we are going to have a shit ton of work from people that would send out to china will be ordering from us.

I just ordered a half million dollars in servers we are putting in to handle the traffic.
We are also building another 16000 square foot expansion for more equipment.

I have a close friend I've known for 20+ years that works as a nurse. She has worked directly w Corona virus patients, though this is not her normal unit. She believes the media and government hype is greatly exaggerated.
It is a small city w a population of less than 600k. I'm sure the problem is greater in population dense cities but, in my opinion, this is an over-reaction for most of the US.
Here in Dallas I don't see reports or signs of overrun hospitals.

It is very different in different places. The worst hit hospitals are in high density areas where "social distancing" is essentially not physically possible.

Also hard hit are the other extreme, the very rural. Often fewer cases, but essentially no medical capability so even a few overwhelm the capability to manage them. 600K is NOT a low density area.

And then there are the Darwin Award nominees like the evangelical preachers in LA, FL, etc whose reaction is to get 1000+ people to lay on hands, hold each other, and all breath the same air mass.

Yes, in those areas the risk is not exaggerated.

A video was posted after the news stated that the hospitals are over run and the one they talked about was as quiet as can be.

Nurses are whining about no equipment yet no one sees any patients

Not sure where all these people are.

The ones that die of a stroke are tested and test positive and they label them as covid 19 victims

Some fat old fuck has a heart attack from years of overeating and no exercise and they blame that on coronavirus and piss and moan about that, too.

I have a friend who needs an operation that is considered an elective procedure but he can't have it right now while the Doctors and Nurses are hardly even busy...waiting on "the surge".

Because it sure smells like bullshit to me.
Talk to someone who actually lives in New York about what it's like there right now.
