With manufacturing sent out of the country, and if we forget the skill, what will happen if we get in another war, remember in the late 20's this country was left by republican with and army in disaray, FDR had to rebuild, what would have happened if the know how was in another country at the time... I do know that I live in and area that did manf...the finest furniture...some of the skill has already been lost, a few people still hang on, this could be true of things we need for war.
