In a decade, China turned a small island into a shipyard that has more shipbuilding capacity than the entire U.S. shipbuilding industry. We need to do better.

But but but , in a decade we added a lane to I-95 for a 20 mile stretch. That’s not a real accomplishment to be proud of ?

It can't help that the US has basically no private shipping industry due to the Jones Act

The environmental clearance to even start building would take decades and $100m in legal fees as 'new' species are discovered at amazing regularity.

We don’t need to. 2 super carrier battle groups could grind the entire nation to a halt. They import some ~80% of agricultural inputs and energy. They have the greatest weakness of any nation on this planet.

In WWII we had the industry, knowledge, & manpower to fairly quickly retool from making vehicles for market to vehicles for war at a faster rate than they were destroyed. At least two of those three advantages don't exist now.

This isn’t fixable until 2027, and only if DoD/Congress ditch Huntington, which they won’t: $50B order backlog representing 70% of DoD (primarily USN) shipbuilding spend. Concentration risk to the max. Totally preventable, but… you know.

@ricfulop How will a for-profit economy out construct a command economy? Real question.

From the video: "This shipbuilding momentum continued long after the war. In 1975 [the US] was the world's biggest shipbuilder." Perhaps if naval shipbuilding is included. But commercial? Not even close.

Shanghai. Point to the one thing in this photo that was actually invented in China.
