I you care to, I’d suggest you read the US Constitution. The document spells out that yes, it IS the business of the government. Article I, Section 8, Clause 1.
If you don’t like the way the US Constitution was written, I’d suggest you move to China. Eliminate the entire nation-state business of flagging vessels which bring you those goods, which, BTW, involves more tariffs and treaties.
Nation states and flags are such a dated concept when it comes to ships. What matters is who has the pink slip.
