Or very little. That industry only comes back in the event of a major war. There's not much to pick up the slack. This is more a sales tax that will jack up construction costs, hurt other markets, and start a trade-war ****ing match that will carry over into other industries. When the President's top economic advisor is resigning over the matter, that should say something.
