    Manufacturers will not build factories in the US to avoid tariffs. They will downsize and hoard wealth for 4 years

    Big enough manufacturers will keep producing the individual components in China, then ship to a nearby country that’s not under tariffs to finish the assembly and ship from there.

    So it’ll create jobs, alright. They’ll just be overseas.

    As for the slavery… If you think you can get a slavemaster to ease up on his workers by forcing him to cut costs, you gotta go back to Econ 101.
