Isolationism would never work, we would be a mess in a few years, and would be begging other countries to trade with us. As an econ major, i can tell you from an economics standpoint alone that there are always gains to be made from trade, and if we were to try to produce everything at home it would be inefficient, prices would skyrocket, and we'd be knocking on doors around the world for raw materials and labor in no time.
