> but its made in america, moves jobs and the products are in the end, better made this is so blindingly retarded and omnipresent. it makes me sad for the state of the average american that we collectively have no comprehension of the fact that the cost of labor is a factor in the costs of production. labor in china is cheap. labor in america is expensive. you can't just move the jobs to america and it'll magically result in cheaper prices and better quality, ceteris paribus. the cost of labor is going to massively increase, and therefore the price consumers pay. the only possible circumvention is automation... but this doesn't create many jobs at all. and it'll still probably still be more expensive because automation requires lots of capital investment which can only be paid off through raising prices. trump's plan is incredibly retarded, and it's insane that so many people are so low information as to believe it's a good idea.
