feels like this is one of those things that sounds targeted but ends up hitting a lot more than expected

higher input costs across the board, manufacturing, construction, etc

just saw this on Blossom and thought I'd ask it here, do people see this as a win for domestic producers or just more inflation getting passed through everywhere?
