    Is it a game of chicken? Who will flinch first?

    Heard on the radio about how tariffs will hurt the US economy.

    Hurt? Or get more US manufacturing happening?

    That possibility was not mentioned in the radio report (NPR).
    They did mention the price increase of washer machines was $100.

    The question is, what is the next country (not China) that can manufacture at a lower labor cost than China? Vietnam and Thailand come to mind.
    May see companies moving to those countries.
