Not on land, food, medical care, most construction and education.

Good thing we don't import any food, medical equipment and supplies, or construction equipment, tools, and materials.

Buy from domestic suppliers and avoid the tariff. IF the domestic suppliers raise prices then someone will come in a take up market share so prices will adjust downward accordingly. It is called greed and greed can be useful. And if you don't think that will happen the you really are not a believer in the theory of supply and demand.

There is precious little food we HAVE To import. Heck, if we stopped putting corn in our fuel tanks, that land can be put to other crops, or less imported animal feed, or just exporting the grain. It wasn't THAT many years ago that the better tools, from Sears to SNAP-ON, were made here, and we have no problems making wood or concrete. The drywall we imported from Red China a few years ago didn't turnout to be such a good deal.

The Red Chinese became Communist heretics when they said "Communism in One Country!" I suppose I can be a Capitalist heretic if I say "Capitalism in One Country!"

Might be an incentive to source those items locally?
