If America and the West want to truly diversify away from the Giant Lizard (GL), it will need to do so by helping its consumers make conscious choices. The GL is exporting so much stuff because its domestic consumption is weak and to maintain jobs and GDP it needs to engage in low efficiency production efforts. Their average profit margin is so low that hardly anyone is making any money. In turn, their factories have no choice but to produce more to keep the cash flow going by engaging in more price cutting. They also have another issue, human labor is cheaper than machine spend per product for the same work. The exact opposite issue the US and many Western aligned nations are facing now. Basically the US and its allies can afford to engage in massive scale, accelerated gradual intense capital investments on high-end manufacturing first and slowly trickle down to the mid and lower end markets.
Consumers want choices and are actually willing to spend more within a given price range for a certain type of products. If America and the West can be at the premium threshold point within every price range, that will not only suffice a real market need, it will also allow America and the West to continue to invest into R&D and manufacturing along with all streams of industries within a given supply chain. What this means is a national survey of all industries to analyze its capabilities and sufficiency. Detailed lists of every component it can produce, processes utilized for such productions, assemblies it can process and the final products it can manufacture. Even more importantly, the scale and efficiency it can do so to fully meet the demands of its markets. All these will then be benchmarked against world-class indices in that domain. This will be a comprehensive test of strength not just in manufacturing of products or providing services but also in the readiness of its people and everything else.

The Giant Lizard free product label certification – an aggressive national industrial investment policy to support import substitutions and new fields adoption.

I believe the US is still leading the world in most areas, what it lacks are actually two fold. The first necessity is important substitution. The West has a huge market for things and much of that cannot be efficiently sufficed by internal capabilities at a given price point. It’s not a lack of quality or technology, rather, it’s a lack of scale to meet a readily available market. Like I mentioned earlier, the West given its labor shortage greatly benefit from more high-tech capital investments such as AI enable robotics automation in manufacturing. For example, the reason why West made drones are so much more expensive than Giant Lizard made drones is mostly because of scale. Giant Lizard support its industries with massive subsidies and a robust industrial policy that allow its national champions to swallow their competitors whole. I would say probably 80% of US manufacturing’s obstacles is lack of heavy capital investments supported by the government. Once there are enough capital investments, the labor shortage and component sourcing issues will be mostly resolved because every industry within the West will start doing this creating an overall boom.
The main reason why a Giant Lizard free label is not in play now is the US and the West don’t really have ready available 1:1 alternatives. Let’s be pragmatic here, if there are ethical related labels cruelty free labels, it’s only natural to have a Giant Lizard free label. Most Western people hate the Giant Lizard, some of them probably hate them more than I do but they are helpless in buying GL made products because they are unavoidable and the Western alternative for example in drones is at least a few times more in price plus very few sell in scale for the consumer market. US has a systemic issue in overall national strategy not a capability issue. It’s ludicrous that the US and the West allow its consumer oriented market to be dominated by the Giant Lizard when the US and the West are fully capable to man their own markets with their own products and services with the help of heavy capital investments into AI-enabled robotics.
The US and the West have plenty of money to prop up its own industries. And no, a National industrial policy is not anti-capitalism and not anti-democracy. It is AI-enabled Industrial Revolution 2.0. The second issue is the new product and service markets. I’m talking about autonomous taxis, renewables like hydrogen/electric/biofuel powered machinery including vehicles, advanced data centers, semiconductor fabrication plants and of course our favorites like flying cars. These new fields need heavy government support to lift the industry up and provide the necessary capital for investments, consumer education, marketing and everything else in between. Bottomline is, America’s problems can be resolved relatively easily if it can develop a new thinking process regarding capitalism. Times are changing, so should America’s economic policies to better support all of its other policies.
