Wanted to expand on this point because by coincidence our boy posted about this TODAY as opposed to the 3 month old video in my previous post. I want to add this guy is a dyed in the wool patriot, served on the merchant marine and if you watch all his videos you learn he fucking LOVES his nation just like I do, but also like me he isent willing to stand by and not point out genuine problems we need to address without it being "dooming"
Here is a little context to get ya going

this is a breakdown of WORLD shipbuilding by nation. Notice you dont see the US? cause we are with "other" at the bottom, making less than 0.02% of world ships. This is a huge problem for maintenance, retrofitting and yes production of both civilian and wartime vessels. I encourage you all to give this a watch and follow sal cause that nigger knows his shit and dosent seem to have any bias other than an old white guy who wants to share his well informed thoughts
