Liberals, you can’t trust rest of world

I wonder why it is OK for GE to move its X-Ray manufacturing facility to China, but Obama opposes the building of a new plant in North Carolina by Boeing. It looks as if Boeing should have moved to China.

It seems that China already has the know-how to build the 737, which is Boeing’s single-aisle bread-and-butter aircraft.

China claims their version of the 737, the C919, will be 20 percent cheaper than the 737 and customers will not have to pay the 23 percent tax levied on American-made products.

How did the Chinese get this technology? Boeing was blackmailed by its customers. In order to secure orders in various countries around the world, Boeing agreed to outsource component parts construction to those potential customer countries. This outsourcing included blueprints for parts manufacture.

Somehow, China now has all the Boeing technology. It seems our “friends” in Europe and Asia provided Chinese manufacturers with whatever prints they were missing. When will liberals learn that we cannot trust the rest of the world — they won’t play fair just because we do.
