That’s sort of inside-out, isn’t it? One of the few things our government SUPPOSED to do is protect us from “all enemies foreign and domestic”!

We have many, maybe most of our companies using off-shore manufacturing, or more and more robotics, and the American blue collar jobs are disappearing. Along with this, we are losing that industrial base that served us so well the last century. Who will we turn to if we are faced with a major mobilization? Mexico?

We have only two alternatives: protect our American skilled workforce and our industrial base or disappear as a manufacturing nation and figure some way of supporting millions of unemployed and unused people.

Oh, and lose the next war.

I don’t feel like getting sucked into an “original intent” argument today, of all days, but I really doubt the Founding Fathers would have seen Carrier as an “enemy.”
