Needless consumer bullshite can be done by peasants in other countries - I don't care if the prices of new shoes or shirts raises or not.

Things we rely on - pharmaceuticals and superconductors, specifically - ought to have a domestic manufacturing capacity far beyond what we currently have. It would only take a few dominos to fall for everything to go to complete shite.

Central Americans risking life and limb to get shite jobs here, using highways from their towns into our country.
Lengthy, expensive journey from China, our enemy.

If only there was a solution within our grasp.

What are your prices on methylamine? It is the current chokepoint in my current manufacturing venture. The process relies on really simple primary amines.

Saw that and was horrified.

Ironically, it was at an asian market. So, thats their version of what our Chinese import would be.

Actually our freight rail network in this country is awesome.
Said no one who actually needed to*:

a) know where a rail shipment was en route
b) know when it was going to be delivered
c) attempt to negotiate anything with a Rail carrier

Don't sell it. The commodity I sell the most of is polyester resin. It has increased about 170.00 per drum in that time frame. Some of that is due to the winter weather problems that hit SETX, SWLA and Ok. Severely shut down styrene production with high demand at the same time means severe price increases.

I don't really care what something costs, if I can't get it I can't sell it.
