  If the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 taught us one thing (or should have) it was that the United States is far too reliant on China for its most basic supplies. Everything from antibiotics to car parts to syringes—and almost everything else we take for granted today—mostly is derived from supply chains emanating in the People's Republic of China (PRC).

The article from MSN discusses the potential catastrophic consequences of a military conflict between the United States and China, focusing on the concept of Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD). It highlights the significant military advancements of both nations, particularly in nuclear capabilities, which could lead to the obliteration of both countries in the event of a full-scale war. The piece mentions the ongoing tensions, especially over Taiwan, and how both countries have been enhancing their military technologies, including hypersonic missiles and advanced naval fleets. It also touches on the strategic implications of such a conflict, suggesting that the sheer destructive power of modern warfare could deter both nations from engaging in direct military confrontation due to the certainty of mutual devastation. However, the article warns that the risk of escalation from regional conflicts or miscalculations remains a grave concern.
