We need to protect our industrial base, invest in infrastructure, and sell more in our wealthy home market. A twenty-first-century version of the American System isn’t just desirable—it’s essential.
Drug shortages are becoming commonplace in the U.S. Data from a new pharmaceutical industry tracking firm, Qyobo, shows hundreds of drugs are still in short supply – some well over a year — and our dependence on imports grows, including from labs on the receiving end of lackluster FDA inspections.
USD Overvaluation affecting U.S. trade with the world by $364 billion, compared to only a $30 billion effect from current tariffs. Currency misalignment also has a larger effect in more heavily tariffed countries, such as China.
The de minimis customs provision that allows for goods priced under $800 to come into the U.S. duty free is full of risks, and an open door for “controlled substances and all sorts of contraband,” Homeland Security secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said on Tuesday.

Today’s announcement on actions to address Mexico steel surge shows that White House foreign policy bureaucrats that negotiated this deal care more about Mexico than about American workers.
