Yes but it would require a lot of work, money, and the economy would suffer at first. The first route is to slowly diverge and start importing from other countries. The other countries will use the money to start to produce things we request. This will happen over a long amount of time as other countries go through a sort of revolution and gain new ties with the U.S. The economy will suffer for years and things will become more expensive but in the long run our economy will stabilize and receive things it couldn’t have had before due to industrialization in baren countries and China continues to suffer as they cannot rely on the U.S. for major export.
The author of "The champion of the world" relates the outcome of the fight with the continuation of African American freedom. If the black fighter, Joe Louis, loses, it would be "another lynching, yet another Black man hanging on a tree. One more woman ambushed and r*ped." It would represent the end of African American pride, "If Joe lost we were back in slavery and beyond help. It would all be true, the accusations that we were lower types of human beings. Only a little higher than apes."
The other ones listening to the broadcast with her feels the same as it shown with the large celebration when Joe Louis wins. "People drank Coca-Colas like ambrosia and ate candy bars like Christmas."
