    Why would the main benefactors and purchasers of this policy position (the Big 3) greenlight their destruction? This is US capitalist policy at play. They can’t compete internationally and had to purchase their domestic protection.

      Well the secret here is that the Big 3 don’t physically control that policy. They can only bribe politicians and hope they stay bribed. And sometimes a protectionist policy looks like the bribe is working but it’s just a prelude to a different planned move. Like trust busting.
