Systematically taking down our food supply chains. Why did the government allow this to happen?

Because our government is corrupt

The Chinese really are just poor investors. If it isn't a scam then they can't make any money.

You can say what you like about Trump but at least his Administration has stepped up the game around this kind of stuff.
Also have a look at what they tried to pull last week:
Last week, at the height of the prime minister’s illness, the British government had to intervene in an attempt by China Reform Holdings – a US$30 billion Chinese government-controlled venture fund – to seize control of the board of British graphics chip maker Imagination Technologies.
The British government saw this as a hostile political act rather than a commercial move, given the clear links between the venture fund and Beijing authorities, a government source said.
Imagination Technologies has become one of Britain’s biggest and most influential tech companies over the past decade, developing ways to process images for smartphones and tablets within the semiconductor. Apple and Intel acquired stakes in the company, though Apple has stopped using its chip technology.
A planned emergency meeting to push through the appointment of four board members with links to China Reform was cancelled after Oliver Dowden, the British culture secretary, wrote to Imagination Technologies demanding a meeting with its chairman, Ray Bingham.
Tom Tugendhat, a fierce critic of the Chinese Communist Party who chairs the parliament’s foreign affairs committee, said he had been approached by US authorities on the issue.
“The White House and US National Security Council are so concerned about the security threat, they’ve spoken to me about the threat to our communications systems,” Tugendhat told The Mail on Sunday newspaper. “Communist Party-controlled firms are trying to take control of more of those electronic codes which connect us all – so they can be determined by China’s tyrants.”

Its about politics. It seems like americans arent aware china is run by a communist party. As someone who lives in a country which was communist i can tell you that these people do not play by your rulebook. To be a communist you have to be brainwashed in a very specific way in historical materialism. Communism is an atheist, amoral movement who sees itself spearheading the revolution to global communism. Communists do not have a moral conception of "good", what is good for the party is what is good. If that is genocide, poisoning or cutting away food supplies then that is what they will do.

A hostile takeover of a critical part of your supply is typical communist move. The fact that it doesnt raise immediate red flags is somewhat concerning. Above all you need to understand that with an ideology like this your traditional morals will be exactly the weakness that will be used against you. The communist can think of ways of damaging you that you cannot even imagine precisely because of your morality which he laughs at.

The general public isn't but under this Administration, the security apparatus has finally woken up. Trump should be given a lot of credit, sometimes an external force is needed to break the status quo:
Bannon said he might consider a deal in which China got North Korea to freeze its nuclear buildup with verifiable inspections and the United States removed its troops from the peninsula, but such a deal seemed remote. Given that China is not likely to do much more on North Korea, and that the logic of mutually assured destruction was its own source of restraint, Bannon saw no reason not to proceed with tough trade sanctions against China.
Contrary to Trump's threat of fire and fury, Bannon said: “There's no military solution [to North Korea's nuclear threats], forget it. Until somebody solves the part of the equation that shows me that ten million people in Seoul don't die in the first 30 minutes from conventional weapons, I don't know what you're talking about, there's no military solution here, they got us.” Bannon went on to describe his battle inside the administration to take a harder line on China trade, and not to fall into a trap of wishful thinking in which complaints against China's trade practices now had to take a backseat to the hope that China, as honest broker, would help restrain Kim.
“To me,” Bannon said, “the economic war with China is everything. And we have to be maniacally focused on that. If we continue to lose it, we're five years away, I think, ten years at the most, of hitting an inflection point from which we'll never be able to recover.”
Bannon's plan of attack includes: a complaint under Section 301 of the 1974 Trade Act against Chinese coercion of technology transfers from American corporations doing business there, and follow-up complaints against steel and aluminum dumping. “We're going to run the tables on these guys. We've come to the conclusion that they're in an economic war and they're crushing us.”

You can't play the free market card the markets are not free there is no reciprocity in China. Good luck going there and buying a food production company that's 5% of their national supply.
Food supply and medicine production are matters of national security these are simply geopolitical realities. The globalist of the last 30 years fucked the US hard.
Henry King
Keep in mind these are people who genocide their own people sometimes even relatives or close friends. Why in the hell would you allow them to buy a food supply company?

But what about his internal adversaries, at the departments of State and Defense, who think the United States can enlist Beijing's aid on the North Korean standoff, and at Treasury and the National Economic Council who don't want to mess with the trading system?
“Oh, they're wetting themselves,” he said, explaining that the Section 301 complaint, which was put on hold when the war of threats with North Korea broke out, was shelved only temporarily, and will be revived in three weeks. As for other cabinet departments, Bannon has big plans to marginalize their influence.
“I'm changing out people at East Asian Defense; I'm getting hawks in. I'm getting Susan Thornton [acting head of East Asian and Pacific Affairs] out at State.”
But can Bannon really win that fight internally?
“That's a fight I fight every day here,” he said. “We're still fighting. There's Treasury and [National Economic Council chair] Gary Cohn and Goldman Sachs lobbying.”
“We gotta do this. The president's default position is to do it, but the apparatus is going crazy. Don't get me wrong. It's like, every day.”

Jordan Allen
You're an idiot, the communists are just taking using capitalisms tools for their ends. People here are stumbling to explain why this is so terrible while wanting free markets at the same time. Capitalism is morally void is why.

Literally capitalism

This. They are basically the epitome of "to greedy to make money". Like open an all you can eat Buffett and in exchange for more shrimp than they can eat, they exchange their entire race's dignity. No cost vs value thought. Why sell someone quality rice for decades when... I can sell ching chong plastic rice and get caught. I think their culture equates cheating to cleverness and brutality to strength. When these are not bound together concepts.
Benjamin Bell
You're not allowed to protect your countries stuff, OP.
Hitler wanted to protect his stuff, and we all know hitler is a stinky doo doo head, and we MUST do the opposite of him if we are to prove ourselves morally superior.
We need to sell our wives and countries to foreign nationals for pennies on the dollar

>A major pork manufacturing plant in South Dakota has indefinitely shut down after more than 200 of its employees contracted Covid-19.
>According to Smithfield, who runs the plant, the facility’s output represents up to 5% of US pork production, supplying 130m servings of food a week and employing 3,700 people. Over 550 independent farmers supplied the plant.
>The company that runs the plant, Smithfield Foods, announced the closure of its plant in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, on Sunday, a day after the state’s governor, Kristi Noem, asked the company to suspend the plant’s operation for at least 14 days.
Very interesting
