That depends entirely on the product or service.
Not really. It's all the same when it reaches a very large or wide gap.

Some trade deficits are a sign of wealth, others are the result of the reality that we're not the most efficient producer of every consumable good on the planet.
What we have is none of that. What we have is what is described in the OP. We are printing money in a massive way due to it.
A massive, persistent trade gap creates a specific type of debt trap that forces the U.S. into a cycle of money creation and borrowing. That's where we are at.
Would you like to go down this road?

shite! Maybe I’m a simulation.
Seems like a lot of trouble to use the em dash instead of a hyphen. Do you get tired of using the ALT+0151 combo all the time since it's not on a standard keyboard?
