COVID: Demand Chinese Communist Party Forgive America’s Trillion-Dollar COVID Loan

from Ken Mercer Show / Mercer Moments in American History LLC · host Ken Mercer

A pandemic leaves scars you can count and grief you can’t measure. We confront both by asking a hard question: what would meaningful accountability look like when:1.2 million Americans are gone, 115 million have been infected, and the national bill reaches an estimated $14 trillion? Rather than chase symbolic outrage, we make a concrete case—push for at least $1 trillion in debt forgiveness from the Chinese Communist Party as a direct, measurable remedy tied to the costs borne by American families and the U.S. budget.We walk through the core facts and the contested terrain. Origin theories cluster around Wuhan, from an accidental lab breach to other possibilities, but the conduct that matters for policy is clearer: China’s swift freeze on domestic travel alongside continued international departures that helped seed global spread. That asymmetry, coupled with the scale of American losses, provides the basis for a financial response. Lawsuits and tribunals may be slow; debt instruments offer leverage now.Then we run the math. With the U.S. deficit near $34 trillion, a $1 trillion forgiveness would cut roughly 2.5 percent overnight and could be channeled to protect Social Security and veterans’ benefits or to shore up public health and biosecurity. It’s not total recompense, and it won’t heal every wound, but it sets a precedent that choices during outbreaks carry fiscal consequences. We also examine the ethical dimension, arguing for targeted, proportional remedies that hold a state accountable without punishing its people.If you care about accountability that actually pays a bill, this conversation aims to give you numbers, context, and a path forward. Listen, share with someone who tracks the deficit as closely as they track the news, and tell us: should the U.S. demand debt forgiveness tied to COVID’s costs?
