I hate talking economics with people who dont about economics..

But let's just give it a try

Lets assume company making tires out of rubber and steel. Foreign steel is cheaper than US steel.

US tire manufacturing company buys US steel.
Foreign tire manufacturing company buys foreign steel.

Result 1: Foreign tire is cheaper
Result 2: Foreign tires will start getting imported INSTEAD OF STEEL.
Result 3: US tire manufacturing company is out of business..
