Yes – some imports will be more expensive, but imports aren’t a big spending category in anyone’s budget. (You’ll have to pay $30 instead of $20 for a pair of jeans! The horror!) [/quote]
This is naive thinking at best.
Many people in this country shop at Wally World, or a similar equivalent. Most of the merchandise in these stores is imported. We also rely heavily on imported produce from the southern hemisphere and may increase our dependence on them now that CA is rationing water to the central valley and CA agriculture is literally drying up.
The good ‘ol US of A manufactures very little anymore..when we are buying all this stuff overseas with a devalued dollar your standard of living will most certainly drop…unless you are invested in foreign markets and currencies.
