Re:White House announces 25 percent tariff on Chinese tech g... by systoll on Saturday June 16, 2018 @01:48AM (#17326073)
The stated goal only matters insofar as it affects the policies that are created.

In 2018, it's a whole lot easier to avoid doing any manufacturing in the US than it is to avoid using any components made in China; and both approaches avoid the tariff as written.

If the goal is to bring back component manufacturing, they need to go back to the drawing board.
