10. We're stuck thanks to the WTO that we signed up for.

The USA tries to set a tariff, then the country that was dumping their under-cost products into our markets to kill our companies gets to sue us.

If we'd had even minimal protection of our emerging technology markets, China would not have been able to destroy a lot of US solar/wind design and production.

I totally agree that we should do that. I just think that we gave that ability away with Reagan/Bush/Clinton/Bush and if he allows the TPP to happen, then Obama's on that list.

I don't know how much manufacturing is going to save us. The last thing we need is more stuff. But it sure would be nice to be able to replace the crap we have now with locally made gear as the old stuff dies.
