Well I'm somewhere in that 99% of Americans, and I can tell you that "what keeps prices low for me" is very far from the top of my list of priorities. People have values and principles, that are important to us.


Honestly, I’m pretty sure if you asked some random person if they would be willing to not be able to afford anything for cutting the ties with everything made in china, they would refuse.


At the same time, I look at the ultra-cheap "deals" lists on Amazon and cringe at the amount of crap we compulsively order, all these "deals" for things we don't need that bring us little happiness beyond the brief ejaculatory pleasure of clicking "Checkout".
