Sad thing is there is no reason items couldn't be made cheaper in the US. Everything can be automated for cheaper than the cost of slave labor.

China gets subsidized shipping though which basically means even if we make it cheaper, they can still get it to us cheaper. I mean you can buy an iphone charger for 70 cents and free shipping from aliexpress while the same charger will run you $9 on amazon.

And that's a good reason to go back to raising revenue via tariffs instead of taxes.
