Can we set up a system to occasionally bomb our industrial base to get these benefits?

Your point is mostly irrelevant. US steel could have innovated or even copied - but it didn't.

The idea that poor US steel couldn't compete because other startups had an advantage is assinine. That is a core message of the article itself.

Just need to target the executive suites. Bonus points if the board is meeting at the time.
