Like?

I love it how the work force bags big corporate but they are they ones that supply the jobs, its when those jobs are lost that everyone is up in arms.

Yet if those in the workforce were in a position to run a business and make money then in the capitalist society we live in I guarantee you would not make a different choice, you would follow the market where it demands.

SO if you are serious then go protest in the street against globalization and capitalism. If you are not actively doing that away from the keyboard the your wasting your time.

I agree strategic resources and capabilities need to be looked at, but you cant run your country based off a "once in a 100 years" event; you can however be better prepared.
