Subsidies, lot of subsidies. And probably a lot of monitoring and adjusting by lawmakers to ensure that industries continues to improve their capabilities.

There's more to that but rebuilding our industrial capacity is a work of a generation.

I think the problem with subsidies just as the problem with tarrifs is that they need to be given in a selective process which can benefit them truly.

Like maybe this industry is already very concentrated and those subsidies benefit more to the concentrated rather than general public just as the farmer bailout of sorts...

Its a tough line and bottom line, you expect some true competency in the govt. to achieve it and be knowledgable about it but I guess in the meanwhile people might discuss such stuff.
