It's a foreign corporation, whose government (which betrayed us, by the way, but that's beside the point) subsidizes it, contrary to the tenets of free trade and free markets. Therefore, it is an illegal subsidy, which gives the company an unfair edge against our companies, which is why our companies don't make those types of jets. They can't compete with illegal subsidies.

Our companies aren't in the market because of US product liability laws.

Yes, only in the USA can you make a product, make a profit...

...and go bankrupt because some mouth-breathing Oprah-watching a$$hole with the IQ of a turnip violates every single boldfaced "DON'T DO THIS YOU DUMBF**K" in the manual, got injured, and got a jury of his peers (i.e., mouth-breathing Oprah-watchers with turnip-grade IQs) to award him lots of your money.

Uhh... when it comes to illegal subsidies and betraying free trade, the Bush administration is among the absolute worst in the world, the current Bush administration has done things that the Soviets wouldn't have done.
