And that’s ignoring that a war with China will mean access to the world’s factory will be cut off, meaning shelves in stores will go bare and prices will skyrocket even more for things produced outside of China (assuming China isn’t involved in some way in another part of that supply chain).
The notion of us (the US) winning a real war when we don’t fucking make anything any more is beyond ludicrous. We won WWII (and WWI for that matter) because we made nearly fucking everything at the time. And whatever we didn’t make we could have made if necessary.
