Your crazy. Google the cost of making an iphone. Labor per phone is $16.00 per phone. If made in the USA maybe double the labor cost so your 1,000 iphone is now $1,032. Big deal

Actually apple wouldn’t have to raise prices. There is a supply and demand thing at work. If Apple could set whatever price they want then apple would set it at $1M each (or higher). So as they raise prices people don’t buy as many phones which cuts into their bottom line. But so what. Apple makes huge sums of money and can afford to build the product in the USA. At least for the phones they sell outside of Asia.
