      They absolutely will.

      These fucking people I swear, they believe in market fairies. They think that if they ban imports, domestic supply will suddenly materialize from nowhere. They’re willing to ban but not willing to invest. Unless it’s some hare brained scheme where they write a capitalist a check for $20B to build a $2B factory

      Why would anyone build a big panel factory when the tariffs can just as easily be reversed? Also where are we supposed to get the knowledge and equipment?

      It’s all so profoundly stupid, backwards, and FRUSTRATING when you clearly have an example of an alternate system that works and yet refuse to adopt it because of greed, of all things
