A HUGE strategic mistake to give the lilly pad sitters any stake in our national security.
I got news for you 90 percent of the Boeing Novelty and Toy Factory aircraft are built from parts all over the world but mainly in ready for it CHINA JAPAN GERMANY SPAIN thats Boeing not Northrop builder of the B52 and the wings of every Boeing Aircraft ever built.
I agree. I don't even think we should have a competitive bid process at all. Just give everything to Boeing regardless the technical specs, mission, or cost.
Everyone knows monopolies are ultimately good for all.
Oh and if we aren't going to buy things from potentially unfriendly outside sources, we also shouldn't sell to anyone else either. Of course we might lose a few defense industry jobs that way but so be it.
