... when our supplier's economies start to inflate, the cost of our stuff that we buy from them starts to inflate ...

... and then people start buying U.S.-made products instead, leading to increased income -- both corporate and wages -- domestically.

IOW that's what's supposed to happen.

Sure, understanding today's complex world of the future is a little like having bees live in your head. But...there they are.

New Not things that we make *any longer*
