@akindheart and all anyone is doing is whining about it. No one is doing anything and I can't do it all by myself.

@akindheart i have no crystal ball, but, i remember the same fears in the 90s and somewhat beyond, when Japan was dominating economically, even buying property and industry in the US. Our country needs to be aware and protective, while not isolating totally.

@IndianaJoes TRUE. i hear you loud and clear.

@samueltyler2 when they buy property near our AF bases, i would say that is a problem. when they are stealing our medical secrets, that is a problem. they were caught red handed in Texas. it needs to stop before we are owned

@akindheart i am not saying otherwise, just putting things in perspective. The corporate espionage is not uncommon, if Chinese companies are involved, it is probably driven by the government. But, our companies are partially responsible, because they don't always use the highest security to protect themselves, and relish what funds they can capture from Chinese companies.
What my medical secrets has any Chinese company or government stolen? Isn't that a bit of exaggeration? I am unaware of any of the recent malware problems in hospitals having come from China. But, having spent my life working on hospitals, it upsets me no end, that any hospital is so dependent upon it's computers that it can be subjected to such compromise. I worked on computerization of hospitals starting in 1978, we warned to always have local.capabilitirs, not to put all your functionality into what we now call, the cloud. We also always had plans on how to function even if all computers failed.

@akindheart "Getting a handle on this" needed to be done in the early 90s. That ship sailed and the money has been spent. On farm and industry protection, Supercarriers and wars in far off lands to support foreign policy. (all expenditure items with no upside) So lets start by telling the people how America is going to stop doing those things, then pay the money back to the world..😷
