I was using food as an analogy, attrition tactics here would be starving us of computer parts and manufactured goods, if the enemy can advance their weaponry and blockades us from imports we will simply die slowly.

Not to mention that the uptick in prices on goods would destroy our economy which already has the middle and lower class stretched too thin. The ensuing chaos as the poor could not longer afford to live, would lead to domestic warfare which would allow our enemies to pick us off as we fought.
