Re: Meanwhile.....

This is a ridiculous statement. For better or worse, pretty much every country in the world supports their local manufacturers.

The difference - and it's a whopper, my friend - is that heads of Boeing can say No to a US government request and at worst they may have some contracts taken away or some other financial repercussions.

Try that as a Chinese company and you'll be spending quite some time in prison followed by a tearful apology to the Chinese people broadcast on national TV and some nice "tax investigations" to make sure you're taken down a few pegs.
