Looks like even the current administration is admitting what we all know about the source.

I don't give two craps about blame.  I do care about preventing the next one

We shall see, but if virology employees were hospitalized with respiratory illness in Nov. 2019 an accidental release of a virus into the public domain seems a reasonable theory.

It is a reasonable theory indeed, and I think some punitive measures are warranted if they can be coordinated, if that is true.  If China tried to cover this up, they are at fault, and won't change that tactic in the future without some form of punishment.

the punishment would need to be severe to warrant a different tactic by the Chinese in the future

It won't be enough

perhaps the punishment should be that all foreign loans/debt should be forgiven?

no other country/entity owes China a dime

If you think about sheer economic cost to all nations of this pandemic (and those costs won't end for many more years), then yeah, loans owed to China are a drop in the bucket compared to the cost.

Hundreds of trillions of dollars will ultimately be the total economic cost of this pandemic.

That would be fair, from an economic standpoint.

No, no it isn't.

I just looked it up on the intergoogles and if they are correct, then China only owns a small portion of the US national debt.  Around $1.1 trillion out of $26 trillion, so around 4%.

The most recent stimulus package was $1.9 trillion which by itself accounts for almost double the portion of the national debt owed to China.

So... yeah...
