Want to know why nobody wants to locate their business in America?
Well actually, because we do not require importers to do so.
Try selling into the Chinese market, without moving your factory and all your technology there. You won't be allowed in.

Try selling into the Chinese market, without moving your factory and all your technology there. You won't be allowed in. Really? Source, please... Because you're wrong. Most Mercedes and Audi cars, most of the original Buicks and Fords and Volkswagens, were imported to China - and there was a tariff applied (just like we apply tariffs to imported cars).
Now those companies sell enough cars there it's worthwhile to BUILD them there, and avoid the tariffs and the issues with corporate income tax. For much the same reason BMW, Mercedes, Honda and Toyota build cars here - avoid the tariffs.
