I wish there was a little bit more detail on what laws are bypassed. Unfortunately I'm also a little put off by the emphasise on averting foreign influence. Regulations against foreign carriers operating in the US were always uncomfortable to me.
- ghshephard 10y agoIsn't the regulation there because the US government uses the carriers in time of war to transport their forces?
- sokoloff 10y agoThe cabotage rules came into place after the second world war. While the military argument may be used by some, to me, this is pretty clearly an economic treaty issue rather than a matter of national security.
