Well, their entire house of cards based economy relies on surplus value extraction which can only be produced by workers so they can’t just let all their workers die, especially if workers in China survive.
You are thinking about this like someone that is able to think long term, because you are a communist. They not only don’t think like this but I personally think they are preparing to bring this card house down and turn into an extreme late stage capitalism that’s closer to feudalism. Crash the market. Let a sizeable portion of the populace die, buy/steal what’s left of the country. Then live like kings and queens as their fascist boot lickers kill anyone that dissents.
You have to think about it from their standpoint. The rich and powerful of this country don’t just abuse the labor force and feel nothing. They do feel. They feel hatred for us. They despise and loath us. Suffering is not just a side effect of their capitalism, it’s part of the point. It’s why, despite study after study that shows more work gets done, that people are more productive, with a shorter work week, they push for longer and longer work hours. They don’t just use us for our surplus labor value. They WANT us to be miserable. The enjoy it.
They know the longer things go the more they risk us fighting back. That’s why they fortify and prepare for it. In fact it’s probably the only “long term” plan any of them have. What better way to eliminate the proletariat threat then to kill off a bunch with a disease they manufactured? A disease they will absolutely blame on Russia or China. Which their bootlicker population will happily lap up.
You can’t think they are planning things out logically or without feeling. You have to imagine being the most evil POS. An evil POS that wants to rule with absolute power. That no longer wants to have to fly to private islands just to rape kids. That loves videos of people, children, being murdered in a genocide. That when they see a suffering workforce they feel happy, because they know they are doing good by their class.
