    GE has been needing to be broken up for a VERY long time.
    No company should be allowed to own so much.

    GE doesnt pay tax either, I always remember the bosses at L3 comms telling me they competed against them but had to pay tax.

    Bailouts and Military contracts are two very different things . Just as jet engine plans to China and buying washing machine rights are. Still too close for my comfort .. Once a great American company that goes back to the age of the light bulb. Like a lot of big company's that floundered thru the Bobimba years , they had to do what they could to keep from going in the tank.

    We are buying back all the land and vital companys that were sold to the chicoms over the years. (thanks bush and hussein) Will take some time. We as Americans have to cease buying ANY DAMN THING made in chiner. Been yelling this at the top of my lungs for years to deaf ears. Now finally, I believe folks are catching on to the importance of buying American goods. I wanted to get a new 60hp 4s but since "made in china" will get a used 50hp merc. I look at the label of all the goods I buy. Lots I don't buy since MIC.

    China has been trying to own us for years, once Trump came in and started turning the tables, China tried to kill us (Corona)

    the commie party is made up from the lost generation, Mao's uneducated gods gift to the world children.
    They stamp their feet and sulk when they dont get their own way
    Once the commie party is gone I think China will take its place in the world and everyone will be happy.

    Its just going to take something like the 3 gorges dam to fail or finally realization that all the middle class wealth locked up in empty property in empty towns thats worth 30% or less of the value they paid for it, or is actually worth nothing and the gov is not saving them...its all over for the party.
    Big disaster you change the emperor.

    Nothings built in Canada anymore except poutine and back bacon, so I try to buy as much American as I can. Ticks me off though when companies like Dewalt plaster the american flag all over their packaging but the damn thing isn't made there. "Assembled" BS.
