Subsidies.
John, I may not like them, but can understand them. Granting subsidies is in effect picking winners, especially if not all parties are getting them. Is that fair? Not really. But, here is an example of where I can see turning a blind eye to them. Just yesterday on the news, I heard that a major U.S. food manufacturer is moving to China, but didn't hear which one.

So how is that accomplished? Well, subsidies are one way. Does that make them right? I guess that it depends upon...
John, I did my best to try and not get this poofed by offering an example that may or may not justify subsidies.
