Thats the entire western way of life.

Look at Purism attempting to make a phone in the US: It costs 2000$...How many people would be willing to pay 2000$ for an iPhone? Lets say Apple can be more efficient than a startup like Purism, maybe they can get to 1500$?

The recent labor shortages in Florida were caused by undocumented migrants being scared by Desantis's stupid immigrant law.

Lets not forget the COVID supply shortages which in hindsight were not a complete collapse thanks to a lot of sacrifice by people who we never see and never think about.

China is going offline either now with greater tensions or later due to their demographic bomb and so far Apple and others are making progress transitioning to Vietnam, thailand etc to stave off the eventual truth that the west is structurally bankrupt. Maybe robots will save us? Thats what all the elites are banking on.
