Jared, the Jewish Captain Obvious.
President Trump has been on this issue for DECADES. Problem is, no one gave a damn until recently.
If an American made whatever cost more than a Communist Chinese version of whatever, nearly ALL Americans happily and ignorantly bought the Communist Chinese product over the American Made product without ever giving a moment’s thought.
And, when this Martial Law ends, every one of them will go back to choosing the Cheap Communist made product over the more costly American made version of whatever.
Why? Because we lack, as a culture, any long-term vision. We as a culture are driven by immediate/short-term gratification. Our lack of long-term vision and strong need for immediate gratification may be our ultimate downfall.

Speak for yourself. I have been trying to avoid crappy China junk for years. It has become increasingly hard to do. The main stores in our small town are Walmart and Dollar General. When I would occasionally post a comment about it, some people on this forum would jump on me—saying how great Chinese products were. SPIT.

So called business leaders helped fuel Hitler’s war machine and they have done this same thing with China. Every dollar we spend with China just helps them in their anti American efforts. We should never have let them into the World Trade Association—but then again, with all those zillions of people—what a market if we could just get to it—blinded by $$$$. Total insanity.
