> it will be time to turn once again to the task of reindustrialization

Won’t happen. 1) We don’t think like that as a nation and probably never will again. 2) in order for us to reindustrialize, we would have to have significant purchasers from outside our own economy, which means someone else would be the first world nation and we’d be the third-world nation. The people with money and power in this country are incapable of considering this or are so supremely afraid of this, the will precipitate action to prevent it; namely war.

Which is great for reindustrialization, provided anyone with brains, tools and resources survives on an irradiated planet.
