In what way do you find that concerning? I think it's usually a good thing to restrict certain federal funding to be used only on domestic products as a stimulus. The issue is that it's a tsunami of funds coming down via the military rather than healthcare or environmental programs.
"Buy domestic" does inflate your costs significantly, but there is a lot of upside. Costs can be brought down by allowing a certain amount of imported equipment or components, or by strict accountability, neither of which will happen under the American MIC ofc.
I don't care one way or the other, was trying to say that this isn't a problem for whomever this is a problem for because it's a Chinese part, it's a problem because there should be no non-American parts whatsoever in the trillion dollar ballistic artificial reef.
