Any concerns re precedent of US granting licenses in return for a piece of the action?
OK if cabinet officials buy stock in companies on front end of these arrangements?
Not unless business starts leaving US because of it. Way better than Dem GILTI Tax which would cause
a mass exodus of businesses from the US and higher corp taxes across the board which is the govt getting cut in on "a piece of the action" for all business dealings.
This plan targets only business done with strategic tech being made available to our enemies.

If that's your concern, you need to condemn the Hunter Biden chronicles first.
You are speculating on a potential graft, but I don't recall you having a major problem with pretty clear bribery and extortion on the part of Hunter/Joe/Jim.
You lack standing to speculate.
How ‘bout defense contracts. OK to select one bidder over others for a piece of the action?
Stay on point cheeks.
I've been talking about the military industrial complex for years.
Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Somalia, Ukraine and Gaza (I probably forgot some) are all at least partially driven by the military industrial complex. Joe told us that funding the war in Ukraine was really about jobs, good paying American jobs to fund the war machine and increase yacht sales (I added the last part).
But, you need to get on the right side of history regarding the Hunter Biden graft before anyone could take you seriously.
But Trump!
