There is a giant wage disparity between many countries and the United States and companies in this country will take full advantage of it. To believe these companies because of 25% tariff will come rushing back to the U.S. is a dream. Even at a 25% rate it still more profitable to farm out the work offshore. Also, these companies are not going suffer financially from any of the tariffs, because they will pass it on to the consumer.
An example is Apple, do you really believe if you put a 25% tariff on their phones, they are going to start making them here.
