Foxconn is coming here (IPhone)
Taiwan is hoping this goes down, their sovereignty is on the table
Philippines and Malaysia used to produce, probably a lot of shuttered factories
we haven't closed the door on cuba yet
There is no shortage of slave labor nations, china knows this.
When you rely on the spoils of slaver and servitude such as we do, its best to 
spread the risk around, and that's what we are poised to do with this. It will 
hurt in the wallet for a time, but in the end, we would be better, critical 
components will make their way back to silicon valley, the rest of the stuff 
will spread out. 

We actually have a great deal of bargaining power in all this.

  The short version of this, is that for the first time since April
  30th, 1975 (end of Vietnam War) the American people might actually
  realize we are at war. They've largely been excluded from that fact
  for almost 17 years now. This however, would be a much more
  conventional battle. We are REALLY good at those, or at least we were
  at one time.

  The alternative is that North Korean continues their program to
  increase their range, accuracy, explosive potential, and eventually a
  multi-warhead (MIRV) situation. There have been some links in the past
  between NK and Iran, so if NK ends up being successful, Iran would
  likely be quick to follow.

  None of this is any good.
