Buy American products. And pay twice as much for them.

We are screwed.

"Buy American products. And pay twice as much for them."

Have a look at the "balance of payments deficit," caused by trade imbalance. Thus, the debt problem, and the dollar must fall. It does no good to prop the dollar up artificially and communistically in the global market. The weight, due to trade imbalances, balances of payments deficits, etc., will eventually push the dollar down, even if that event takes place by way of repudiation, currency adjustment, and so on. It will happen. Then, foreign products will be much higher than domestic ones.
