I don't see how the situation is comparable. The U.S. was the premier economic and technological power during its occupation of Japan, Iraq, and SK. No one placed any tech embargoes or economic sanctions against the U.S.
Main thing was all supply line was within the USA , and all manufacturing was there.


That is not the case any more.

Russia is like the USA prior of 2nd WW, self sufficient, has direct borders far away from any harm with the biggest factory of the world.


At the moment the USA importing big part of its energy, and nearly all indsutry depends on import.

Means the position of the USA is more similar to the position of Japan prior of the 2nd WW than to the pre war USA.

Until Brandon Biden got into power the US was virtually energy independent. We easily could be again.

Easily replaced. It would take time but plenty of skilled workers in the US and Europe.
Takes nothing else just double/triple the number of industrial workers. Good luck for that.

The cheap Chinese import not only replaced the USA manufactured goods, but increased the volume of them.

Means cut back the import require brutal inflation to adjust the consumption to the reality.
