In a Free Market how do you compete with slave labor? Someone has got to call the Chicoms out on this might as well be us.

Three stumbling blocks for job return — EPA, taxation and labor unions.

Looks like they reverse engineered a F-22.

I think it would be hard to come up with a list of technology the Chicoms HAVEN'T stole.

Isn't that counterintuitive?

I mean, if you're going for stealth, aren't you trying not to gain attention?

they didn’t reverse engineer anything.

0bama handed it to them a while ago... and no one cared

“China wants to show just how far its arms industry has come, experts say.”

Especially since 2009. Looks like a Rapter.

That is true. But stopping buying all imported products, and appealing to an emotional aspect (such as patriotism, etc) won’t work. It just won’t.

Now, China may take care of that emotional aspect on their own for us, the way Japan did in the 1930’s leading up to WWII, but I wouldn’t hold my breath on that. Not that they aren’t capable of doing something over the top heinous to another country (they are a communist country with a heritage of killing millions of their own people, so they are capable of just about anything.) but the world is a different place, and not so easily outraged as we once might have been.

See I believe there is an equally as significant conservative belief, to be for America.

That is increasing, in importance. Significantly I believe.

I understand the supporting free markets, but we also need to support America.

I’m not sure how, but I know that is equally as conservative. Support America.

Looks cool. What is its radar cross-section and its war-load? How does it compare to a F-35 (since there are going to be darn few F-22s)?

Lockheed Martin the only company to have successfully exported one

Well, they actually exported TWO. The F-22 to China was done without Lockheed's notice.

Conventional cone shaped afterburner exhaust? They are still playing with low tech crap ‘The Bent One’ gave them.

They need to work on their “A” game.
