Which is sad/funny because the American federal government really can’t run out of money. It could hypothetically run out of resources, sure, but US dollars can buy any raw material anywhere and even then the land we stole from the indigenous nations happens to be some of the most resource rich in the world. The government could easily spend tens of trillions to create bleeding edge infrastructure and simply chooses not to.

US government won’t build tech manufacturing facilities. It is ideological.
