    An article from the same (?) source about some of the non-financial difficulties with investing in American shipbuilding

    “Securing local skilled labor is also a challenge. Warships supplied to the US Navy are designated as defense materials, so only local workers with US citizenship can build them. An executive at a shipbuilding company stated, ‘Even if we hire local workers, many quit, resulting in a near-100% turnover rate. Even then, their skills are low, and problems like drug use persist.’”

    I hope it works out 🤷
