I cannot speak to copyright, but there seem to be mechanisms in place for stopping import of trademark infringing goods to the US. See for example the run-in which SparkFun had with importing lookalike Fluke Multimeters a few years ago: https://www.sparkfun.com/news/1428 and previous HN discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7428799

This might actually do more to confirm than dispute your comment about "laws for those with money/power", though.
