The industrial capacity isn’t something that you can just magically create overnight the way you print money. It’s a decades long process because you need trained workers, which means having a school system that prepares people for trade jobs, you have to build factories, you have to reorganize supply chains, and so on. There aren’t any simple solutions here.

Better yet also, not only is the industrial capacity something they can't magically recreate overnight- but their specific systems of dollar imperialism, hyper-financialization, and neoliberalism are very effective in further hindering the process, as well. Never mind getting to the point of training the workers, even before that they need genuine systemic reforms and to wean off the present forms of capital- even if it's just to try to return to the systems of industrial capitalism and imperialism they once had- their efforts will all be largely moot.
