One of the big reason you want Apple to manufacture in the US is the ripple effect it does for metal and plastic manufacturing and the full train of source materials.
So Apple’s plant — or a US-based Foxconn facility — could be highly automated but still create 10 times the jobs for companies who supply Apple.
And Samsung would certainly follow.
Trump’s correct. We’ve scared manufacturing away with regulations.
No, it would not. Samsung is not headquartered here. . . And the majority of its sales are not here. They have zero incentive to manufacture here.
