    They won’t be able to afford our medical isotopes soon. These are raw material inputs into high value industries. This will damage US aerospace, automotive, etc.

    Don’t tariff your inputs! This means Boeing will pay a lot more for any aluminum (domestic capacity insufficient, and less price competition vs. eat the tariff).
