So....how good of an IDEA was it to incentivize moving manufacturing overseas because of cheap labor and you end up with out having the {”national security”}items that are needed to sustain the basics of our current economy? If I remember correctly this was allowed by college educated elected officials....book smart street stupid. At 60 years of age I officially say that I truly loathe and have nothing but distrust and fear my government as I see them doing nothing but damage to our republic. We are not a democracy.

So instead, He is giving us what the powers that be asked for.
