【按：如果有百分之二十的利润，资本就会蠢蠢欲动；如果有百分之五十的利润，资本就会冒险；如果有百分之一百的利润，资本就敢于冒绞首的危险；如果有百分之三百的利润，资本就敢于践踏人间一切法律-马克思。所以，美国大选和抗疫是不是一场能够博取百分之三百利润的资本与人性角逐，不言而喻】
当地时间27日，美国《国家利益》杂志发表题为《后疫情时代，特朗普政府会让中国再度伟大吗？》的文章。文章详细对比了中美在抗击新冠肺炎疫情中的不同表现，指出这种迥异表现可能导致世界秩序发生重大转变。
The American diplomatic magazine The National Interest published an article Monday titled "Will the Trump White House Make China Great Again in a Post-Pandemic Era?" The article pointed out that China and the United States have behaved very differently during this epidemic, which may lead to a major shift in the world order.
文章开头写道，在这场战“疫”中，中国有效地运用了科学的、以健康为重的方式来抗击新冠病毒，而美国却采取了以经济为重的方式应对疫情，这无疑削弱了科学家和医学专家的作用。不仅如此，特朗普甚至拒绝了美国情报和军事机构提供的相关信息，以至于他在新冠疫情对美国造成的影响上出现各种判断失误。
The article praised China in adopting a "scientific and health-driven approach" to combat the coronavirus, and criticized the Trump government's "economic-fueled" approach which in the authors' opinion has "undermined scientists and health professionals."
与此同时，文章称，中国全面的地缘政治战略为自身从欧洲和非洲带来了众多机遇，相比之下，特朗普政府却狭隘地把中国台湾和斯里兰卡当作“棋子”。
文章写道，“由于缺乏对美国的外交敏锐度和战略眼光，特朗普总统的种种偏颇、失败、疑虑和无能，都将自动为中国带来胜利。”

文章举例称，为了转移国内的指责，特朗普近日宣布暂停对世卫组织的资助，同时还扬言要对其进行审查，以评估其在应对大流行病时的“处理不当”。而为了提醒美国人他是抗疫“啦啦队长”，他则在经济刺激的支票上印上自己的名字——这是一种前所未有的“零售式竞选”路数，暴露了某种自卑感。
"With his lack of diplomatic acumen and strategic vision for the United States, President Trump's range of deflections, failures, misgivings, and utter incompetence in the face of the coronavirus presents a victory for China by default," the article said, calling Trump's decision on suspending funding to the World Health Organization a way to deflect blame, and said his efforts in making sure that his name is printed on stimulus checks were "an unprecedented form of retail politics with an inferiority complex."

而在特朗普极力“甩锅”的同时，中国正成为人道主义救援的敏锐先行者。中国竭尽所能为深陷疫情困境的各国提供援助，这包括数以万计的口罩、呼吸机乃至医护人员等。相比之下，特朗普所做的却是援引《国防生产法案》，要求3M公司停止向加拿大和拉美市场出口口罩。
文章一针见血地指出，“颇具讽刺意味的是，美国接受的中国援助甚至比美国政府自己提供给民众的都要多。”
While U.S. President Donald Trump is busy shifting the blame, China has become the "perceptive leader in humanitarian response," the article said, through providing medical supplies including thousands of masks, ventilators, and even doctors to countries that are in critical need of help, with the U.S. included, given that it has accepted more Chinese aid than it actually provided to its own people.
文章进一步指出，对中国来说，抗疫过程中的对外援助能够将“一带一路”倡议转变为新的“健康丝绸之路”，从而提升中国的全球声誉。“一带一路”因此将变得更具吸引力，而在这一点上，对大多数国家而言，加入美国阵营几乎是毫无益处的。
China's "generous aid" towards the world, according the article, represents a strategic opportunity to "transform the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) into a new Health Silk Road" which will in turn bolster the country's global reputation.

以斯里兰卡为例，美国驻斯里兰卡大使威尔斯曾将这个国家称为重要的“不动产”，因为其在印度洋具有重要的战略位置。然而，如今美国正失去对斯里兰卡的控制，这点从其未能延续《部队地位协定》就可以看出。另外，美国还曾承诺通过《千年挑战合约》向斯里兰卡提供4.8亿美元的发展援助，但最终该国却拒绝签署该协议。
与此同时，在斯里兰卡政府发出紧急求援信号仅数日后，中国立即为斯里兰卡延长了10年的优惠贷款以帮助其渡过疫情难关。斯里兰卡和许多国家一样，正相应地转变对华合作关系。
Taking Sri Lanka, a country becoming "increasingly more important" to the U.S. as an example, the article stated that "The United States is losing its grip over Sri Lanka made evident by its failure to renew its Status of Forces Agreement, even after pledging $480 million in development aid via the Millennium Challenge Compact (MCC)." Meanwhile, China extended a ten-year 500 million U.S. dollar concessionary loan to help Sri Lanka fight COVID-19 only days after an urgent request was sent out from the Colombo administration.

文章最后总结称，疫情当前，中国正积极发展经济伙伴关系，推进外交政策目标，而特朗普的短视政策正把美国引向地缘政治的自然失败。若美国继续推行失败的政策、不信任盟友、推卸全球责任——那么不用有意推进，中国也将在后疫情时代自动成为全球领导者。
"If Trump continues to pursue failed policies, distrust allies, and shirk global responsibilities, then China will be well-poised to replace the United States as the global leader in a post-pandemic era—not by design but by default," the article concluded.
据美国约翰斯•霍普金斯大学最新数据统计，截至北京时间30日14时32分，美国新冠肺炎确诊病例已达1040488例，死亡病例达60999例。
The number of confirmed COVID-19 infections in the U.S. hit 1,040,488, with 60,999 fatalities, as of 14:32 BJT on Thursday, according to statistics released by the Center for Systems Science and Engineering (CSSE) at Johns Hopkins University.

【结语：最后还是想用《资本论》的论述来看待目前的美国，从理论到实际，人们不尽的探索和求证理论的正确，很显然，百余年前的那位德国思想家，哲学家似乎已经看到了今天的这一切：作为资本家，他只是人格化的资本。他的灵魂就是资本的灵魂。而资本只有一种生活本能，这就是增殖自身，获取剩余价值，用自己的不变部分即生产资料吮吸尽可能多的剩余劳动。资本是死劳动，它象吸血鬼一样，只有吮吸活劳动才有生命，吮吸的活劳动越多，它的生命就越旺盛。】
