The last bullet for determining if it's punishment: "Was that a congressional intent for the statute to further punitive goals."

It fails that test. It isn't any sort if punishment. It's for "national security".

Oh? Could have fooled me. The anti-China statements from politicians are admissable.

If the government is allowed to hand waive anything under "national security" then it's a short trip to the work camp for us all.
