What happens if a competitor build it at $6.50 and sell the similar product at a lower price and Apple which build it in the US build it at $50 sell it at a higher price. Apple will lose very quickly. All that money invested in building a factory in the USA will go to waste. Businesses can’t invest like that. They have to find the cheapest place with the lowest cost and plan long term, to give themselves some room to adapt to any changes in the market

Its called “race to the bottom” and is no way to run a business. Apple could and can build here and still make a profit. They just don’t.

then I guess the job would have STAYED IN AMERICA, wouldn’t it?

AMERICANS would be making it, and AMERICANS can MOVE to where the JOBS ARE, couldn’t they??

Did AMERICAN COMMUNIST GOVERNMENTS build up AMERICAN manufacturing bases?

NO! Capitalists did, using their OWN money!

Name ONE foreign company that uses it’s OWN money, until you can name where all our products come from, and which are made on PRIVATE money that invested their OWN money in R&D and development and production, All Rush’s words are just NUMBERS GAMES!
