since globalization caused by free trade and better infrastructure has reduced the cost of distance, then transportation costs and decisions are more based on trade laws and infrastructure quality, rather than the geographic space and item being moved. is there a way do visualize this, like a map that scales distances by the time or cost to transport goods?
this part really interested me because in Indonesia, it is cheaper to have goods imported all the way from Europe than to send them across neighboring islands

An important quick mention about supply chain affecting just in time production: the original model in Japan included evaluating the supply chains for parts sensitive to interruptions, and strategically stocking them to prevent a single point of failure. The American model overall has generally neglected or poorly assessed which parts to stock in strategic reserves, though

There's a lot of overlap here with my profession, industrial engineering, but since I apply those skills on a company-level scope, I never really considered the macro effects of this type of logistics planning! There should be a bigger focus on that angle in engineering education.

Then the Auto and Oil industries hijacked the American Dream, convincing everyone that living in the suburbs and driving to work for 30 minutes is better than living near work and being able to walk to work, stores, and social areas within 30 minutes

Globalization is what killed classic Detroit. Good for corporations, bad for workers and the surrounding communities. New industries have not popped up to replace the jobs lost due to globalization while the work force has gotten even larger.

Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos will have Mars built up like a huge labour city, with underground agricultural greenhouses, while shipping goods back to Earth for those population capped and -deemed- deserving enough to remain here.

Would be more interested in -how did Detroit (and Baltimore) become the hollowed-out shell of a thriving metropolis that they've become--Video

Mostly because Henry Ford was working in Dearborn when he started building cars. Henry Ford made Detroit the Motor City.
