If the goods are made in the US, that means revenue from local job growth, associated taxes and spending. Manufacturing keeps local communitities solvent. It has to be part of any recovery.
If we retain the regulation and tax regime that is currently in place all the goods in America will be unaffordable and if the cheap crap from China is banned then we will all have nothing because we can’t afford anything and thus there will be very few USA made goods available and American industry WILL NOT RECOVER. If we kill all the regulation and most or all of the business taxes then our USA made products will compete successfully with any foreign goods and they will only trickle in instead of flood in. Excluding imports is a GOVERNMENT solution inherently SOCIALIST and therefore must fail. If exclusion is combined with tax and regulation removal the exclusion will be redundant and have very little effect.
