Unintended consequences scare me too. But our manufacturing base has been sent overseas. When we need cargo ships, say in a war with China, and all the cargo ships have been made in China, we are probably going to have some issues.
I don’t see this as economic as much as I do a security issue. Like making cars and trucks. Some things a nation has to be able to do, damn the costs.

To make it work, you have to find a market-based solution to the problem, or you help invite the government into managing your industry for you.
Michigan killed the auto industry because they were not a right to work state. If they were, and the union overstepped their power, membership would have deserted the union a long time ago. If GM,Ford,Chrysler abused their workers, then membership climbs, and you get a strike.
