"Left behind" implies we were in the race and lost. No, it is more idiotic/worse than that - we literally gave it away. 30 years ago, we took our best tool makers and engineers and taught everyone else how to build these components, then exited the race. Then we took all our…

What is more or less capitalistic? 1) The government openly buying 10% of a stock in a strategic autonomy sector that conventional market forces would otherwise wipe out. 2) A foreign government buying a significant stake in a strategic autonomy sector that conventional market…

"But the problem with our competition policy is not one clause. It’s the whole act trying to function as both competition law and industrial policy. If you chase two rabbits, you will not catch either one." policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/augu…

The thing that the YIMBY crowd often misses — and I say this lovingly, because I am also a YIMBY, and I believe in zoning and building code reform — is that we need regulatory reform *beyond* local codes in order to achieve the housing abundance and neighborhood vibrancy we all…
