I really don't understand people sometimes.

All I ever see and hear are the loud protests from people that "all our crap is from China", and "nothing is made in America anymore and it costs us jobs", yet when it comes down to a honest to go homegrown industry that would provide tens of thousands of long term good paying jobs, the firs thing we want to do is buy it from China instead. California alone is looking to pay China 40 billion to build them an HSR.

Yes, Buy America does make things more expensive but thats not neccesarily a bad thing, especially when the alternative is so disgustingly dire.

Yes, China would be more than willing to accept our many hundreds of billions of dollars to build us a HSR, but why would we do that when we have the opportunity to not only do it ourselves, but become a world power in the technology and major manufacturing base?
