Good column George. The last time the USA embarked upon sending massive amounts of its natural resources to Asia landed us in WW2 with the Japanese using our resources to wage war against us. Now we have Schweitzer, coal companies, rairoads and ship interests taking our resources to China to help power the Chinese companies that are waging war on our industries and economic interests. We lose the jobs, buy their cheap stuff and get to suffer all the pollution they dump in the ocean and air to help keep their stuff cheap enough for Walmart shoppers.
