...in all seriousness and not pokin any fun at ya now. If ya got three companies in competition with one another and one of them outsources jobs overseas the remaining two companies cannot compete price wise. They have to do the same thing or go out of business. I dunno what the answer is.

The real question is how can Apple compete and make all these profits, while at the same time leading the tech world and dragging it forward by the teeth, if it manufactured its products here? LEt's not forget that all design and development, thousands of people is done in Colyfornia, which he seems to ...ignore.

How much would they cost if made in America, and how long would it take Apple to perhaps go bankrupt?

Can he demonstrate that Apple's products would be just as cheap if they were manufactured here, and does he acknowledge that Apple is one of the few companies in the US that's been hiring here like crazy?

It is with unfortunate examples that Labor uses like Apple to illustrate its problems that they end up getting nowhere.
