As much as I would agree with you there are many companies which cannot, cannot be sold off.

Cannot be.

We’ve already started selling off our critical stake.

It is time for that to stop. Long time past time, in fact.

It is time to start getting them back.

There are certain products which cannot be exported for national security reasons. Companies could be designated the same.

The problem is not the laws so much as it is dishonest and unpatriotic people. Bill Clinton sold an entire airplane manufacturing plant, a property of the defunct McDonnald Douglas Co., to China for $5 million. The plant was easily worth several hundred million. It also had critcal airframe bending and shaping equipmrnt necessary for airplane manufacturing. That itself was worth much more than the $5 mil.

Jimmy Carter gave away the Panama Canal and allowed China to control both ends of it. Jimmy Carter also cut our Navy in half. Later Clinton halved it again and recently Obama has again cut it to less than 300 ships total. This is at a time when China is rapidly expanding their navy.

As I said, honesty and patriotism are the keys and we have consistently elected the opposite.
