US Manufacturing Plant Supply Chain Issues - Coronavirus

Trinity, I own a small manufacturing company.

When we need to expand production, we add workers and more shifts. That way the same electroplating tanks get used 24X7 instead of just 40 hours. BTW, my workers LOVE overtime and working weekends. Ambitious bunch.

Electroplating is relatively easy to expand just by welding up bigger tanks and adding chemicals. Not rocket science.

BTW, the chem plants in Houston can retool to create just about any chemical stock or organic material from hydrocarbons.

I'll bet that at this moment a bunch of companies in Houston are searching the references for the formulas for common medications and specialty chemicals to create. The value/pound is enormous.

Once I had to buy a special plating chemical from China, the only supplier. They quoted me $45/gram as if it was prime Peruvian!

We can buy quality machine tools, some from here in the USA, some from Europe and Japan. Add machine tools, hoists, heat treat ovens, etc. and you can rapidly build manufacturing.

Of course, older machines can be used as well. You would be surprised at what is in the "bone yards" of various companies. I have a lot of equipment sitting out in my cattle pasture on pallets right now.

My parents were WWII generation. Mom worked almost every day of the war in Houston heat running a milling machine to turn out drill bits for Hughes. She put all her money into war bonds and finished the war as a moderately wealthy woman. She was a high school grad from a small town in Texas. Never learned to drive a car, but she ran a milling machine.

We won WWII on a river of gasoline out of Texas.

Pop joined up in 1941 and became a fighter pilot, later a navigator on bombers.

They survived and had six kids.

By taking extreme precautions, I think we can slow or stop the spread of the virus.

My company will keep turning out parts as long as the workers survive.

Ref security, I have my night shift lock the front gate. All workers know that I have no problem with them being armed even if they don't have a License to Carry.

I have faith in our people and industry.

Prez T can help most by FIRING bureaucrats, e.g., the incompetents at the CDC.

They have moved production facilities to other developing counties where Ivanka and Jarred make their garbage to sell to
the retards.

MAGA!

Nothing will happen. We got Mexico as backup option.

Your liberalism is wonderful and beautiful.

Like stepping on a pile of human shit sitting on the sidewalks of wonderful, beautiful liberal San Francisco.

Wouldnt this be an opportunity for USA to fill in some of the gaps... Ie expand manufacturing to cover shortfall?? Any country NOW would be able to cash in to some extent?? Of course prices would go up!!

I am no liberal.

The fact that you say that reveals that you are a retard of no substance to counter with any logic a zombie like the Libs only a different flavour of zombie.

I don't have to step in human shit as Canada unlike the USA is not bankrupt yet and can afford to maintain its infastructure.

Ok retard, now why don't you consider reality.


As holding your breath and spouting Trump will save me s he is better than Clinton or Obama isn't working very well for you, is it, in this 3D where you live?
