You do know the military uses high end, off the shelf, networking equipment manufactured by companies like Cisco and Juniper don't you. It's not a good idea to give China easy access to the latest and greatest hardware used to move logistical data. The Aegis system is built from COTS hardware and software and low-and-behold the ChiComs are announcing the development of a new Aegis class destroyer.
Let's not make their missles as accurate as ours. That was the advantage we held over the Soviets, we will have no such advantage over the Chinese.

The difference is with the Clintons is that they sold them for campaign contributions from the Chi-Coms.
I agree with you that military secrets should be protected as much as it is humanly possible and not sold for campaign contributions, but what about normal day to day business operations such as the cost of doing business. Shouldn't a business owner have the right to go to the place where his/her dollar gets the most bang for the buck.
BTW, earlier on this thread I noted that self-serve check out lines now lets one checker do the job of four, thus outsourcing three checker jobs.
Should this practice be banned?
