Yes. Like don’t screw with the market, because nothing good comes from it.


Did you read the article or just do a driveby posting?

Even Adam smith allowed that some involvement of govt and lawyers were needed for a good economy.

This is a national defense issue mostly. What happens if we do nothing? have you compared the two options?

I prefer this rather than a grant to a non profit. More transparency.

Everything thing has pros and cons. This is not fascism, a complete takeover by govt. Historically we have had many private/public endeavors. Learn from the bad ones, emulate the good ones.

Look at the big picture/system, not just two data points like the libs look at global warming.

Some involvement. Taking over a company is more than some involvement.

As i said to another: having our national security be dependent on mediocre overpriced chips that are behind the curve isn’t good.

I am looking at the big picture. And the big picture shows that no government takeover of a company has led to the company making better products.
