American consumers have enjoyed the cheap prices of manufactured consumer goods for decades. They aren’t going to buy a $45 doll when they are use to buying the same doll from China for $19. There is no incentive for corporate America to move their plants back to the US. Americans won’t buy the $45 doll if they return, because we can’t compete in cheap raw materials and labor. Never will. US companies based in China, Thailand and elsewhere will continue to sell their $19 dolls through out the world where there are no tariffs. The US consumer will do without or pay the higher tariff price…or wait for a different President to be elected once consumers want prices to go down again and tariffs eliminated.
