Be honest, if all the goods you purchase would be double in value you wouldn’t purchase as many because you couldn’t. That would mean the American company you are buying from doesn’t need as many workers so fewer employed anyway and fewer profits overall.
Also keep in mind American company Y will use Chinese labor and sell the shirt for $20 so no one buys the shirt made in America for $45 and Company X goes out of business.
Most manufacturing jobs in America will be gone. Except those that are crucial for our national interests. America is a mature market with high costs although not as high as Europe. There are not going to be manufacturing jobs that you can be in for 40 years with the same company anymore. It’s just not going to happen.
