I've had a lot of conversations on this podcast about bringing manufacturing jobs back onto American soil.
But my guest today, John Gardner, goes a layer deeper – asking us to rethink the idea of free trade altogether.
John, the author of "How to Make America the Manufacturing Super Power of the World", passionately shares his thoughts about:
– The national security risk posed by an American supply chain that's so heavily reliant on offshore manufacturing
– How higher tariffs can protect our economy
– And why we need to reposition manufacturing in the minds of the next generation
