We do have exports that people wanted prior. Bourbon, corn, guitars, etc. We have major brands, agricultural products, and other categories that are purchased abroad.

Take a look at the export list. Stuff is there.

    Oh, I didn't say we had no exports. I said other places make better stuff. (at least for anything that's not ridiculously expensive in order to pay proper American craftsmen a skilled job's wage)

    So the corn exports are... Worse?

    Where else can you get Bourbon whisky?

    I was trying to demonstrate that your point is sort of juvenile. American products being expensive? Sure. Are there things you can't get elsewhere? Yes. Is everything produced domestically probably worse? That one is just remarkably stupid.
