You trying to put lipstick on a pig? The DPA does enable the government to force companies to produce designated products. And it does guarantee compensation. I don't think the company's "will" is taken into consideration, nor needs to be. Obviously, the company needs to be capable of doing it. Can't, practically, force a dairy farm to produce ventilators.

GM and Ford offered to make ventilators.

How come GM got ridiculed and Ford got off scott free? Isn’t the government supposed to treat everyone equally? Those GM workers in Ohio must be raring to go after Trumps pep tweets.
