This column is more a concern for the industries that the economic hit men represent:  military suppliers and contractors.  These dunderheads are now realizing that if other countries don't get some sort of support or agreement from us....they are now free to purchase from Asia, Eastern Europe, whomever.  Dunderheads never see the forest for the trees; but do please spare me the altruism bunk.  Everything we do has strings attached; that's not altruism.
