#1 You think are Apple products are affordable now? Wait for the 25+% tariffs.

For future Apple product purchasers, thanks for your contribution to the Trump Treasury. Good use of it will be made to return jobs to the USA.

#5 Apple’s decision coincides with the end of tax subsidies

Saw this all the time back in PeeAye. The state gave Chrysler huge tax breaks to build a car assembly plant in Westmoreland County. When Chrysler nearly went belly up, the plant closed (even tho federal tax dollars then bailed out Chrysler) Then the state gave Volkswagen huge tax breaks to take over the plant. Tax breaks ran out, VW left. Then the state gave huge tax breaks to Sony to make TVs there. Then the tax breaks ran out...
