>>11263728>>11263738Wow thanks for the economics 101 lesson. I'll repeat the question no one has been able to answer. Setting aside the decades long lag it would take to bring now factories online, how exactly do you intend to leverage any new manufacturing capacity when the blanket imports affect our ability to acquire raw inputs from foreign countries?
Show me on a map where we can mine aluminum, cobalt, lithium, titanium, bismuth? How long do you expect our oil supply to last?
We can not do everything in house. Period point blank.
The gains made in simplifying the transportation aspect of the supply chain are completely washed out by the tremendous scarcity of raw inputs available in us soil.
What happens when supply is low?
Yes prices go up, good job econ freshman.
What will manufactures do when their supply is expensive?
Yes they pass that price along to the consumer.
So no the tarrifs will not help reduce the price of advanced manufactured food in America.
Jesus Christ we haven't even gotten into the labor cost in America. Assuming you believe basic first world accomodations like medical insurance and retirement plans are worthwhile.
