I'm paying attention. I understand the premise. And I understand its grotesque corruption when it subsidizes the likes of Emirates. If it were limited to subsidizing purchases from mom-and-pop manufacturers in the US to impoverished business in Africa, I'd be fine with it. But subsidizing Boeing purchases from state-owned behemoths? GMAFB.
