Now that we've gotten that out of the way, can you tell me what you
really think?

(just kidding!)

I worked at a plastics plant where we made all the parts in the
factory.  So I know there are products made in america.  I just
wonder why business people don't see the promise of building chips
for cars in the US since we can't get them from China.  (granted,
this is just an example, I don't know if those chips actually do
come from China).

If more US companies started building the items we are short of,
they could take advantage of opportunity.
