Over the last few months, all we’ve been able to talk about when it comes to the economy has been tariffs and trade wars.

Behind a lot of Donald Trump’s talk has been his desire to see more manufacturing done in the United States.

And that includes everything from steel and cars down to smart phones.

But how realistic is it to demand everything moves production to the US? And has Trump perhaps touched on a flaw in how our most popular products are made.

Today on The Front Page, we’re joined by BusinessDesk’s Dileepa Fonseka to discuss how manufacturing actually works.

Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

You can read more about this and other stories in the New Zealand Herald, online at nzherald.co.nz, or tune in to news bulletins across the NZME network.
