Since we no longer manufacture shit in this country and import nearly everything we consume, and goods we do build and manufacture here are ten times the cost due to Union dues, government red tape and taxes - having the world make their own trade agreements without any involvement from is is going to really suck in the near future for most of us.
But hey - like imbeciles, we think we are all that and that we are invincible, and that we are still vitally important to the world and that without us the world will come begging for us to come back.
We are about to be shown a very painful lesson in the consequences of stupidity and shackling our own selves to the prison of central planning and big government coupled with a quasi-isolationist economic policy.
Well said !
And what we do export to the world is degenerate entertainment and social marxism.
It makes me think of former UK PM Cameron when he said: " I want to export gay marriage around the world"... as if that were a commodity to be valued and praised.

Leading up to the fall of ancient Rome, much of what was consumed by Romans was imported.
Roman citizens lived in luxury and reveled in degeneracy while the Roman government entertained them with bread and circuses.
As J V Nash wrote in Henry Ford’s “Dearborn Independent” magazine in 1921:
” So agriculture, industry and trade were abandoned.
The products of the whole known world streamed daily along the great Roman roads into the Imperial City, which sent back nothing in return but carts loaded with dung. ”
Exporting "dung" is what the degenerate US has been reduced to.
