"mask manufacturing subsidies for masks nobody even bought? Who could have foreseen that demand spike?"
The entire industrial capacity of USA, country of 300 million people, could produce zero Meltblown, so it could make zero masks. Do you think it's acceptable?
People talk about conflict with China while we depent on them for toilet paper to wipe out butts, it's like a mentall ilness.

The US gets a neglible amount of toilet paper, if any, from China. And there was never a supply disruption: there was a demand disruption, a distribution disruption and a run.
