Barry Sternlicht recently gave a VERY insightful interview about tariffs and what it means for real estate prices - what he said is troubling: "The promotion of American manufacturing is a great idea, but we are not a manufacturing nation... We only have 13 million jobs of 160 million... show more

And, a 4-5 million housing shortage? That again?? He’s just parroting stuff and has an agenda. It’s not really very rare when talking to CEOs and the like.

Here’s what could get more expensive with Trump’s new tariffs.

Same people who shipped our jobs overseas now say Americans don’t want to do those jobs. Only say that because they don’t want to pay the labor of Americans and instead would rather pay cheap labor for higher profits!

don't disagree but this impacts US consumers as well - do you want to pay more for everything?

America has 10% kids choose STEM in colleges, then only half of that are actually able to graduate. While China kids have 60% choose STEM

Manufacturing output as a % of gdp hasn’t changed much for decades. The jobs are not going to be line jobs. It’s not about the number of jobs, it’s about making stuff here that helps our national security.

I think this is key: "We only have 13 million jobs of 160 million in manufacturing, and we're running a 4% unemployment rate. So I'm not sure who's going to work in all these factories."

The entire grub hub and uber nonsense can be cannibalized so those people can get good paying jobs. Also adults can finally rotate back out of fast food and relinquish those jobs again to teenagers. We have no problem with labor. What we need is supply chains and plants to build

Not clear making assumption (all) Americans are not interested in manufacturing jobs — Gen Z and Y have not been given a chance to explore the possibilities. Plus factories and manufacturing of today are different than 30/20 years ago

If we were to bring back manufacturing jobs back to the US it will take a long time - this is not done something that's done overnight. Building factories/plants, and training will take years. And by that time, you'd think tech/AI/robotics will have advanced substantially.
