Everyone should be forced to pay $10 for a US, union made screw driver just to change a light switch, instead of paying $1 for a Chinese made screw driver to change that light switch.

If you think labor costs are the principal reason manufacturing went to China I've got bad news for you. The degree of automation in America is so great that other factors take precedence, principally taxes and regulation.

Makes no difference where the cost difference comes from.

You still have a $10 screw driver or a $1 screw driver.

DUH!

Get it?
