The Trump administration’s tariff scheme appears less and less likely to bring manufacturing jobs back to U.S. shores.

Businesses across the country are crunching the numbers and realizing that, despite Donald Trump’s insistence, they can’t balance out his tariff hikes across the supply chain.

“Some manufacturers who had plans to open factories in the country say the new duties are only adding to the significant obstacles they already faced,” Bloomberg reported Friday.

That’s because the supply chain to produce those goods in the United States simply isn’t there, requiring companies to import raw materials and factory equipment—which Trump’s tariffs have made unaffordable—from abroad.

            Didn’t have to wait 48h to reply to my other messages 🤷

            Socialism is pro globalism but not pro globalization, what you’re talking about has nothing to do with globalization (taking jobs and shipping them where they can be done as cheaply as possible, leaving the people losing their job to figure out what’s next for themselves), it’s about global cooperation.
