The world is a dangerous place, and there are all kinds of players who would bring the United States down. Certainly ISIS in the Middle East would hope to leave us a smoldering ruin if they could find a way to accomplish that. Iran still has regular “death to America” pep rallies in the streets, in spite of the newly signed give away by John Kerry that supposedly ushered in a new day of understanding between the two countries. And Venezuela has spoken in the past about the U.S. being the playground of the devil, even when they were buying the majority of their consumer goods from us.
But the more curious and difficult to assess situations are where our purported enemies are interested doing business with us and even investing in our country. Ordinarily, that would seem like a good thing, since there would be an economic incentive to get along rather than destroy their investment. But what if the investment had a military element that might impact our own military preparedness and maintenance?
That is exactly the situation facing Terex Corporation, a $3 billion company that provides critical infrastructure equipment to the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security, among others. Should such a company risk working with an overseas partner who is at odds with the U.S., or worse yet, should the company actually be sold to a hostile foreign entity?

The corperations are fools yes the management will make money then they will be replaces and killed it happens alot.
It would be very easy for China to take over our military bases.. They have investments already in place .. The stock market already sold America out from under our noses..
People, calm down. One, any such deal has to be approved and two, by the Defense Federal Acquisitiob Regualtion, any critical contracts this company has, would have to be divested to American owned companies.
Yes, keep an eye out, but there are already regulations in place to govern this situation. Just make sure those are followed.
Did you even read the article? It is not talking about bases.
this shouldn’t have to be discussed, this should be rejected right out
They could not no worse than how the monkey has done in seven years
All these country’s know this country is up for sale !

This is just one reason we need Trump. No more corrupt career politicians. There is only one clear choice. Trump is raising a MEGA-Movement, a counter-revolution, by standing against the Globalist Elite that own both the Republican and Democrat Parties, and own the Media that own all the Spin Doctors like NeoCon Review’s gang of 22, Charles Krauthammer, and Megyn Kelly. He is standing against the establishment that controls the six corporations that own the T.V. and radio media, all of the major news papers, most of the small so-called independent papers, and the 99 percent of the publishing houses. These are the people that also own and control the Federal Reserve and all the Western Central Banks that have held our economy hostage to their New World Order Agenda, robbed us of Constitutional Governance, and relegated our children and Grand Children to debt slavery in a quasi-Marxist Poverty State. From Robert Snowden: This ELECTION is between Donald Trump and the Globalist Criminals that control every aspect of our Government, every NGO that is pushing a Globalist agenda – from the Rockefeller Foundation, George Soros, UNESCO, USAID, and the Clinton Foundation. Simply put, this is the most important election in our life time. VOTE TRUMP!
Meanwhile there are people who would actually vote for a Socialist
