In the Conclusion of Blood Money, Schweizer summarizes his claims that Beijing’s actions are causing significant harm to the US through fentanyl, illegal gun enhancements, media platforms, and manipulation of the COVID-19 pandemic. He criticizes US leaders for their lack of a strong response, attributing it to either ignorance or personal financial interests. Schweizer suggests that some leaders may even align ideologically with China’s political system. He frames China’s strategy as part of an “unrestricted war,” aiming to weaken the US through physical, mental, and strategic means, including espionage, land purchases, and political influence.

Schweizer calls for a bipartisan consensus on China’s alleged malign strategy, contrasting it with the corporate drive to benefit at any cost. He highlights the passage of the Stop Chinese Fentanyl Act of 2023 as a positive step, but questions whether it will be effectively enforced. He thinks that waiting for China’s internal problems to resolve is a dangerous approach, urging US policymakers to adopt a more assertive strategy in confronting Beijing’s aggression.
