Make What We Import - Trade, tariffs, and why 10,000 new factories are going to be built.

As a result of advanced manufacturing systems, we are able to compete with cheap labor countries for most of the products we presently import. As a result, over the next ten years, manufacturing will have explosive growth in the US as we begin to aggressively make what we presently import.

This program explains the nature of US trade surpluses and deficits over the years, how the latter has hurt our economic growth, and how the future is bright for local economic development organizations if they take advantage of the “new” industrial revolution.
