National security != information security

National security includes things such as the prevention of over-reliance on a foreign supplier working with a foreign subversive government hell-bent on their unfair mercantilist policies. It's economic security they worry about first, which could lead to a whole host of other security issues due to lost of leverage later on.



> prevention of over-reliance on a foreign supplier working with a foreign subversive government hell-bent on their unfair mercantilist policies.

If that was true, no foreign country would be buying from US companies.


Why?


To prevent over-reliance on a foreign supplier working with a foreign subversive government hell-bent on their unfair mercantilist policies.


In what way does the US have unfair mercantilist policies?
