Can you explain more about how local businesses necessarily use only locally-produced materials, all of which are sourced entirely locally?

- sjoedev 1y ago> The distributors may or may not buy from China and Mexico. They most certainly do. And they’re paying more. And, consequently, they’re raising prices. Which small, local business pay to operate. You’re not making a strong argument here. Do you really think a price increase somewhere in the supply chain doesn’t affect everyone downstream?
