Comment on US fab construction costs twice as much, takes twice as long as Taiwan
scarabic@lemmy.world 2 days agoAre you saying that 10% of an economy is vital goods and the other 90% is not? Not that I have any numbers on this but 10% seems low to me.

10 % isn’t based on anything but let’s imagine: 2-4 % military 1 % communication infrastructure, media and unbiased information 2-4 % healthcare 2-4 % food. You quickly get to 10%. Too big and you loose the benefit of free trade.

Could you try doing the same with the 90%? if life’s essentials are so easily paid for I am wondering what you think the rest is going to?
