The people who say they want to see a revival of US manufacturing often don't actually support it. They're the ones who will buy the cheaper t-shirt every time, which means the one made abroad. Meanwhile, the luxury consumer doesn't care where something is made but will pay $$$.

Either way, the 2017 experiment proved one thing: even with the promise of sweatshop free production and identical garment quality, US consumers were not willing to pay an extra $4 for a US-made garment. You would have to raise tariffs so high that the US item is *cheaper.*
