where are defense contractors' factories located?

[grasswire]

Will American workers at least get some jobs out of this fortune that's being thrown down a rat hole?

Where are bullets made today? Tanks? Armor? Bombs?

Uniforms are made in China, I think.

Where are the MRE's made?

(You'll have to excuse my bitter tone. I watched "Grapes of Wrath" again last night and am feeling a little peeved at the attacks on workers.)

5. All over the place

I lived across the road from the Alliant Techsystems (mines, ordnance) plant in suburban St Paul. I interviewed for a job in a company amongst many similar ones making air force components in Colorado Springs. DC area has a bunch. That's just for starters.

6. Halliburton operates out of Dubai so they don't even pay taxes...

...and we can't go after them for funds that were never accounted for.
