Much of the routine trade and investment between China and America is entirely appropriate and in America’s interest. But inserting the Chinese Communist Party into America’s pay-to-play system and its economic development strategy isn’t just crossing a line. It’s a leap into an abyss of stupidity.
On the surface, sure, why not? Sounds like a good idea. But on consideration, I suspect this would lead to the Feds intruding into local law enforcement more than would be healthy. I’d like us to get over the notion that the answer to every serious problem involves more Federal involvement.
Federal involvement is needed in corrupt, blue states where a progressive agenda takes precedence over law and common sense.
