I am 100% for higher tariffs, and moving industry back to the USA.
We run an online boutique, and try to list products made in America whenever we can.
The first problem is finding textiles made here.
The second problem is getting customers to swallow the more expensive price.
Many of our customers message us asking where the products are made, and we put on ever product page if it is imported or made in the USA.
A lot of them say they want made in America, but when we look at the numbers, they only buy when it's Made in China's price. So we sell Chinese a lot. Most people won't put their money where their mouth is.

If there was a concerted effort to educate Americans on this matter I think you would see a difference...a big one.
Let it get out that Yeti manufactures 100% of their stuff in China right now and see how the public responds. Pure greed is the only reason why we do ANY business over there.

In addition to "made in the USA", perhaps its time for "Caution: This Product Was Made In China" labeling...mandated by federal law, if need be.
