We’re experiencing a re-awakening in America in so many ways
A nation isn’t a nation unless we secure our borders
A nation isn’t a nation unless we are healthy and have a trusted food supply chain
A nation isn’t a nation unless the government is efficient, accountable and works for the people
A nation isn’t a nation unless we build things, and build things that build things
We are the largest economy in the world yet we have a puny merchant fleet of around 80 ships among the 100,000 registered ships. It is a joke.
The re-industrialization of America means a foundation of American Flag, American crewed ships that are the most advanced, most efficient in the world.
It all begins with Americans showing up and representing America at key policy bodies such as the International Maritime Organization - perhaps the foundation for a re-set United Nations. China dominates the IMO offices in London. America doesn’t even have a representative.
