They also don't have the restrictions American companies do (like wages and environmental, which if you think are unreasonable fuck off back to 1900, there's a reason for this). If they want to do all that and still have access to our market this is the price they pay. Our population has the buying power and the benefits from tariffs to not just our economy but to workers around the world and the environment are greater than any cost increase to what is essentially a luxury item.
