      Considering the lack of ammo to send to Ukraine and Israel and the production ramp up that hasn’t happened yet, I’d say the MIC’s interest in keeping margins as high as possible stays supreme.

      I think they’d be complaining about the lack of funds if that was the case, and not about the absolute hubris of not being able to make more weapons because you moved your industrial base to China.

        Moves industry to China. China becomes more industrialized. You start cold war with China which now has all your industry. You can’t do anything to match their industry because you have no industry. Surprised Pikachu face.
