Sen. JD Vance sounded the alarm on U.S. manufacturing on Sunday, telling Fox News that America has relied too long on Chinese 'slave labor.'
Sen. JD Vance warned that America would face dire consequences in coming decades if the nation continues to rely on Chinese 'slave labor' for manufacturing. Vance made the statement during an appearance on 'Fox News Sunday' with host Shannon Bream. Bream pressed Vance to explain former President Trump's support for extensive tariffs on foreign-manufactured products, questioning whether it could result in major price hikes for Americans.
Vance went on to warn that current policies could lead to a future where the U.S. relies on foreign countries to manufacture virtually all of its goods. He argued the U.S. must exert economic pressure on foreign competitors or else 'we're going to wake up in a country 20-30 years from now where everything that we need, the pharmaceuticals we put into the bodies of our children, the weapons of war that our troops use, are made by foreign countries that don't like us very much.
Economists have warned that increasing tariffs would also cause an increase in prices for everyday goods due to American companies relying on cheap raw materials from China. Fox New's Chris Pandolfo contributed to this report.
