You don't want to go through the legal issues of selectively banning products sold by companies from allied countries because they outsource some of their production. Plus how long would the US last without electronics while the corporations set up shop somewhere else?  it’s a bunch of Japanese, Korean and other corporations that set up shop there.

But that won't happen. We don't want to pay several times more for goods while the rest of the world does not.  It is unrealistic.

Why does the US do business with other repressive countries? Ask a Palestinian if they suffer  "political and religious repression at the hands of the Israeli".    And the US has provided much of their military might which bloodies your hands as well.  Most of the world sees the US as the thugs you claim the Chinese to be.
