I am for comparative advantage, but those conditions do not hold here.

Whoever figures this one out without 50%+ tariffs will win the nobel..

Easy. Let all these foreign countries develop technologies with their own money, not the money of American companies.

That is what rugged individualism is about, right? Not the welfare state of technology transfer and socialistic support of industry!

make these countries invest their OWN labor and costs to make or BUY the machines to do labor or manufacturing, develop methods and processes the selves instead of buy it out.

Once they do, the comparative advantage is realistic, and years away, too.
