Who are the Americans who would produce the phones? Immigrants are not welcomed. A lot less money is going to education and science in the US. Robots? How long would that take? And who would build them?
The avg wage of an assembly worker....
- In India - 161 Rupies hrly. (that's $1.89 U.S.)
- In the U.S. it's $15 to $23 per hour.
Apple phones are already over priced, over hyped & over rated. Force Apple to make them here & No One will be able to afford one. Except billionaires.
THIS IS NOT NORMAL!
It's pathetic the same people who don't mind camping overnight for a $1,500 Apple phone don't think those phones should be made by Americans paid decent wages and given safe work conditions or benefits. No, they should be made by foreigners treated like trash, paid piecemeal, and who work 9-9-6.
And yet, these same purchasers, would howl to the Heavens about injustice and corruption if they had to toil under the same awful conditions required to produce the phones they're addicted to.
The US no longer has the infrastructure to make them here. The GOP made sure of that when they let US manufacturers send all their work overseas.
So Apple either pays the tariffs, or they spend three times as much to manufacture here. Either way, US consumers are the ones who will "eat the costs."
Hypocrite Trump at West Point, his supporters forget he or no close relatives of his never served. Trump called my fellow dead veterans ’suckers’, how could that be forgotten?!
This crook gets away with so much.
How’s MAGA trying to take out deep state and make America great, tolerating Trumpy Musky ultimate Corruption Gravy train! Is MAGA the ultimate deep state?
Incredulous, a Republican party President dictating to business how it runs its own affairs. This is not the free market system, but a directed economy you find in totalitarian States. Trump has put America on a slippery slope. His crumbling mind lacks logic and reason, and long ago core principles.
