Pena needs his head examined. In his scenario we should outsource all of our arms manufacturing to China. We can show them how to make the things they haven’t yet stolen plans to. Teach them our R&D methods while we are at it. We can save billions each year and get more equipment to boot.
We’ll be even richer, and more dumb pricks can become lawyers and insurance salesmen, instead of engineers and machinists.
I don’t expect to convince you that free trade makes America stronger, though-— my point has simply been to attempt to clarify the terms, i.e. to point out that Duncan Hunter believes in fair rather than free trade.
