One of the absurdities of our country today:
We have 138,000 troops in Iraq right now wearing Chinese boots.
America can not supply her troops with footgear without depending on imports from other countries.
And the saber-rattling just started this week against China!
The nuts have definitely taken over the nut-house!!!
I think you would find that most of those do have significant foreign inputs.
As a secondary and more housing related question, how much of the material to build a house comes from places outside the US. I’m pretty sure sheet rock and concrete comes from here, but lumber? Fixtures and faucets, doors?

The natural resources of America are pretty significant.
Lumber – it's pretty hard to find a pine tree in Japan.
Food – our heartland is pretty productive.
Copper – Arizona used to put out alot of copper, may still.
