re: #59 DangerMan

Cause we have absolutely every raw-raw material and can just dig up out of the ground right? //

Of course.

No oil? We’ll just build coal power plants, that’ll get Appalachia back to full employment!

No rare earth metals for electronics? We can get by without them, American innovation will come up with something that’s just as good with what we got!

Not enough food products to feed every American? Farmers will be so thrilled they can get away from crap like soybeans and start planting things we need! And farmers will be thrilled to sell their products to American consumers, rather than sending it off to those damned foreigners for high prices. If they don’t think so, we can just fix that by banning food exports!

And so and so forth. Just believe in the awesome power that is “‘Murika” and you can fix any problem.
