Of course it could. We just need to expel the jews first.

dude, we are equivalent land wise to the combined territory of every European power.. Spain, France, Germany, Italy, the U.K. And Portugal combined have less land mass. And those countries INDIVIDUALLY warred with each other and dominated the rest of the world for much of recorded history.
The problem is that an economy that is good for manufacturing is bad for finance. Also, there would be less prostitutionSJConspirator » 08 Sep 2021, 6:34 pm » wrote: ↑ I’m not even talking about states being independent, just the US.

Not really. They certainly don't rely on it.

Hmmmm. Looks like you lost your audience!
And zero reliance on it.
Because you export a lot more than you import.Vegasgiants » 08 Sep 2021, 6:55 pm » wrote: ↑ Why be number 2 importer in the world if you dont rely on it?
That is **** hilarious
They don't need to export as much as they do. If we made underwear in the US, then they wouldn't have to make so much underwear...and they wouldn't have to import so much oil.Vegasgiants » 08 Sep 2021, 6:59 pm » wrote: ↑ But they dont do it themselves. They rely on imports
If they didnt need imports.....they wouldnt import. Duh

But they do not rely on imports. In fact they rely on imports less than North Korea, apparently.Vegasgiants » 08 Sep 2021, 7:03 pm » wrote: ↑ Well we have established that they import a ton of stuff so China is out
