A significant portion of global demand functions as a critical outlet, effectively stabilizing domestic employment levels. Without this external market access, the economic structure faces a precarious situation: the consumer demand domestically remains insufficient to absorb production capacity. Trade surpluses become less a luxury and more a necessity—they're the mechanism preventing systemic contraction. Strip away cross-border sales, and the underlying imbalance emerges starkly. Insufficient internal consumption coupled with sustained production output creates deflationary pressure. The global marketplace essentially absorbs what the domestic economy cannot, acting as a pressure release valve. Economic stability hinges on this export channel; lose it, and you're looking at potential economic deterioration.
