Group 4: Policy Implications - The government's high tariffs have increased costs for raw materials and components, complicating the manufacturing landscape and leading to a cautious investment climate among businesses [5]. - The article suggests that the U.S. government has underestimated the complexities involved in revitalizing the manufacturing sector, as highlighted by the challenges outlined in a recent Economist article [8].
