Exclusive: American Industrial Policy and the Rise of China - The American Mind

Senator Marco Rubio speaks at National Defense University on the need for a ‘pro-American industrial policy’ to counter China.

The following speech was delivered by Florida Senator Marco Rubio at the National Defense University on December 10, 2019. In an exclusive to The American Mind, it is here reproduced in full as prepared for delivery.

This morning I am honored to speak here at the National Defense University to discuss the defining geopolitical relationship of this century: the one between the United States and China.

The fundamental challenge is that China seeks to prove that you can have a prosperous society, a contented citizenry, and be the world’s major power without respecting human dignity, freedom, or God. And the second reason we must respond to the challenge before us is because the industries that China intends to dominate are the very ones that will create the dignified and productive work Americans need for us to remain a strong nation.

This is worth a read by those who are following the “China problem”. IMO, it is the biggest challenge we will face since the missile race with the USSR.
 
Countering China needs to be the free world's #1 priority. I think the average citizen is naive to the danger the rise of authoritarian China poses to global world order and national security. The Chinese government is a Nazi level evil that must be opposed.
