People whine too much. It's creating positive jobs. It's not alot but people are forgetting how much it is to do manufacturing in the United States. It's not cheap. And it's some of the worst decisions to do economically for that company.
The only way we will ever get manufacturing back in the states is through major tax breaks to suppress the costs. That's the only way. Chinese Labor is 1/10 that of the U.S. and their quality is just as good. They work harder and don't complain as much. The culture is completely different. The U.S. can't sustain a manufacturing plant with the Americans truly supporting it. What does that mean? It means Americans willing to pay the premium it will cost to buy it american made. Those iphones from china are 700, they are not 2300 if it comes here to support all those jobs Apple will have to create. Will everyone support buying them at a Premium price to ensure that manufacturing continues? My guess is no. Americans are as selfish as anybody else (me included) and you say want these things, and rant about it. Well prove it with your money.
