  You cannot win a war without a manufacturing base. That’s the thing that public transit won’t fix. It won’t give us a manufacturing base. Auto builders will. There are probably plenty of ways to ensure a manufacturing base, but having a robust auto industry is one way that is pretty well understood. I don’t like the amount of inefficiency caused by protectionism, though.
