The Evil Geniuses who sold free enterprise and competition as the most important national goals a people could have, are sure going to have some explaining to do when we fight a war with China and it becomes painfully clear that far too many of the moving parts of our mighty military are now made in China, often by the same oligarchs assembling them in the USA and making crazy amounts of money on the flip. Once again, you couldn’t write a movie script this unbelievable. But here we are.

That’s not free enterprise and competition. That’s destroying the US dollar, outsourcing our inflation to emerging markets, forcing companies to outsource labor to cheaper markets to keep up.
Then on top of, government selectively taxes and tariffs certain items and not others. Never mind the million federal, state, and local laws on the books that mess with markets Ann’s business costs.
Oh, then income taxes, wage taxes, incentivizing some industries and products and not others.
Let’s not forget gov created monopolies.
This is your idea of competition and free enterprise?
Sometimes you say intelligent things
Shocking.
