All I'm arguing is that our incentives should now be built in the direction of serving the national interest. And our disincentive should be about being against things that are against the national interest. So Anything that incentivizes a company to move its production of something really important to another country, whether it be high taxes or subsidies from the government, we shouldn't do. I don't Think that puts us at war with the business community. I think the business community, by and large will respond to whatever the conditions are. (21:41–21:51)
