Yes...

If it means that at the end of the day the US's economy is stronger...

Remember the 80s when Ronald Reagan sat back and watched the Japanese steal our entire steel industry... Japan financed that theft through subsidies to it's own steel industries...

We sat on our thumbs...

Go to Youngstown, Ohio, Saws, and ask the folks there... They will tell you... When the Janette Blast furnace was shut down by the Japanese theft Youngstown's booming downtown became a ghost town... The only thing there now is a high rise prison where businesses use to thrive... Youngstown is now a prison town where even Washington DC prisoners are kept... Nothing much else... Block after block of old department stores and shops all empty...

You fight or you lose...

If it takes spending a few $$$ for America to stay in the game, so be it...

GfinS's claims of $400,000,000,000 are delusional... Obama couldn't find $400,000,000,000 if his life depended on it...

But, yes... If we have to support industry in China then we should do it... Either that or down the road ask why we didn't...

This is alot different than outsourcing... 180 degrees different... We are not taking American jobs... We are getting ourtrade balance balanced... No jobs are lost here... $$$ comes in... Very little goes out... Business 101...
