Anything else the central planners should make us build?
We should develop an aggressive plan on what we'd like to manufacture in the US through the force of government over the next five years. We'll call it the American "Five Year Plan."
Maybe a bunch of wind turbines. Personally, I’d like to get in on the unemployed poet thing that I am sure will be coming forth any day now. They can pay me to write poetry. Then when that runs out, the can pay me to play guitar and sing.
Seriously, though, I see where you are coming from, but our economy is headed for a Greater Depression IMHO, and the whole economy is going to be shaken up from top to bottom. Might as well bring our jobs back home while we are at it. After hyperinflation hits, we aren’t going to be able to spend internationally anyway.
parsy, who notes we haven’t built any cargo vessels in a couple of years.
