Couldn\’t we do with a little less military equipment and have it made in the U.S instead of China?
It used to be that all equipment had to be made in the USA. Sure we bought materials we do not have in the USA like rare earth magnets. This is so disheartening. Spending all of that money and having it not create jobs here.
Sept. 30 (Bloomberg) — China has become the world’s leading supplier of components crucial to U.S. defense systems, products once supplied by American companies such as Magnequench Inc. and Molycorp Inc. Bloomberg’s Kevin Thrash reports. This report also contains comments from Teri Luna, a former employee at Magnequench, and Stan Trout, an adjunct physics professor at Marian University and former Magnequench employee.

I know Republicans will call me a liar but this but I will say it anyway. Democrats want to change this. In fact the one in house you hate most is running on stopping this. And China is paying for 7 out of 8 Republican ads this year. I will not give you a source because Fox will not run that story.
I agree we do not need this big of a military industrial complex. Especially considering this.
China and India for that matter are not going to run ads for people that want to make our military equipment in the US and I am sorry that I mentioned that Republicans are in favor of this because I just want everybody to want this stopped. I am not going to mention that again ever. Because I think the Republican party can be changed if Republicans do not want this.
