Q.e.d.
Yep. We in southern Germany found it quite funny when president Trump spoke about import tax to save American products from foreign competition. Fact is that there are many things America can not produce anymore since it simply lacks the potential. Most of the factories you need now are liquidated and transacted. The knowlege of the workers is gone or sold to somewhere else. This can not be replaced fast, since such is a process that will take many years if it ever will happen. Same thing in the UK btw.. Maggie Thatcher deidustrialised the country completely and turned everything into its banking sector. After the brexit the banks will come to Frankfurt and the Brits are forced to accustom themselves to a frugal life. They will live their own Morgentau-plan from nowon. ;)
