[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3437420, member: 5412"] This is very true. We can’t survive as a nation with only 100% USA supplied products. We just don’t have the raw materials to produce them and process them economically. Some of the most common materials we use are only in other countries. When NAFTA went into effect our company lost lots of business to Mexico. We got it back later as the quality controls in the Mexican process were lacking severely. Cheap manufacturing does not equal quality manufacturing that our shop produced. Tariffs have not been put on those items, only on those items that we had a trade deficit on that could be manufactured in the US with less regulations. Obama/Biden administration put so many regulations out there that manufacturing had to go overseas to stay alive. O bummer said it could never happen to bring manufacturing back. Trump proved him wrong many times over until covid hit. It’s coming back. [/QUOTE]
