This is the way 99% of the companies nowadays decide if they will build/import product from another country or at home..

A. to import it costs $X to labour, + $X for production, + $X for freight/transport and + $X for other = $4.98 total per product

B. make it at home $X to labour, + $X for production, + $X for freight/transport and + $X for other = $5.00 per product

and they will choose A to save the $0.02 per products because it's money in their pockets even though it will support someone elses economy and pollute our earth even more.
