restricting GLOBAL trade....
rather than allowing companies to sell their products in other countries....
in many circumstances.... they will NOT be allowed to sell their products in other countries....
with certain exceptions....
for example.... when a product cannot be produced or grown in certain countries.... like.... bananas.... bananas cannot be grown in many many countries....
and....
when economies of scale trump country independence.... as is the case with semiconductors.... the cost of semiconductors are GREATLY reduced with economies of scale....
instead.... of the current situation.... dependent on significant global trade.... if they want to reach foreign markets.... they will have to license their technology to companies based in that country....
this has several global benefits....
it greatly reduces the high carbon global distribution network....
it encourages local supplies of products....
which....
provides country security.... ending the debate over whether a foreign product is being uses to spy on your citizens....
with the most relevant example being.... tiktok....
