Totally disagree with you on Benz. He’s not saying what he personally believes, he’s playing devil’s advocate, after hundreds of podcast appearances where he decries the villainy of what we do to other countries.
And his point is not that materials from all over the world wouldn’t be available to America in a free and open situation, he’s arguing that they might be a lot more expensive (I.e. America’s prosperity has been subsidized by cheap debt and aggressive foreign policy)
And he’s only arguing this, again, after sounding the alarm on hundreds of podcast about what USAID does and why it’s (mostly) not good for America
