Ben is correct in saying that we need to focus on building, but I believe it's also important to emphasize that we should build in the Western Hemisphere, rather than just in the United States. The U.S. will not always be able to protect the entire world as it has over the past 60 to 100 years. We need to bring some manufacturing closer to home.
There will always be tensions with Taiwan. However, it's a challenging situation due to its dominance of semiconductors. The U.S. needs to bring manufacturing to areas it can protect, and that would be in the Western Hemisphere—specifically, South America, Central America, and North America.
