For most manufactured goods in the USA, labor accounts for less then 10% of the retail price. Off shoring production only saves a few pennies on the dollar. A small tariff of say 5% would raise revenue an offset that. Thomas Jefferson would agree.

Last time I checked, it was steady at about 3%...

It's the other things like safe working conditions and breathable air and drinkable water that significantly raises the cost of products...
