Piss babies make the world operate off of “everything for the low no matter what” and are now pissed China has flooded the world with that cheap tech. Shouldn’t have fucken stabbed us all in the back by moving everything overseas you leperous cocks.
Clyde Prestowitz, president of the Economic Strategy Institute, went so far as to call the Defense Department lazy. He says the Pentagon should leverage the fact that “for companies in those areas, to have big business with the U.S. Department of the Defense is important.”
“I could’ve swore we had more influence than that. Amercia is still the world leader right? …right!?”
Holy Misleading Headline, Batman…
The actual first sentence of the article:
Since 2019, the U.S. Department of Defense has been asking for a waiver from legislation barring it from doing business with companies reliant on telecommunications equipment manufactured by Huawei.
Emphasis added. This isn’t the DoD saying “we need to use Huawei hardware”, it’s the DoD saying “a fuck-ton of companies we do business with use Huawei hardware.” And that’s because Huawei hardware is cheap and businesses like cheap. While I do think the DoD has some leverage in contracts to say, “welcome to the Defense Industrial Base (DIB), you cannot use anything manufactured by Huawei in infrastructure which is within scope”. If the text of the law says that the DoD can’t do business with companies who use Huawei hardware at all, then that’s going to be very limiting.

Fucken is short for fuckeng, right?
Huawei paid good money to the people who stole that tech from Canada.
US should have bought out Nortel instead of letting them go bust.

Unfetted capitalism is ultimately a self-masticating ouroboros.
