The West is so degraded and weak it can’t even keep the Suez Canal open.

Forget Nasser, Houthi terrorists have closed the Canal.

An economic system based on these sort of obvious failure points like shipping thru the Canal is bound to catastrophically fail.

Time to start making the stuff we buy, and buying the stuff we make, rather than this Global Trade Bullsh!t.

I’m completely with you that we ought be making absolutely certain we can produce all things vital to our own safety: for example - antibiotics, certain health products as you alluded to.

But there are a variety of things the USA enjoys that it cannot easily grow or build here. Where it makes economic sense, we shouldn’t overlook those opportunities. And we can still navigate around canals where it makes economic sense to do so.
