"Think about the IPod, for instance. It is designed in America and its 451 parts are made in dozens of different countries. But just because it is finally assembled in China, it officially counts as a Chinese import and therefore a contributor to America's trade deficit — never mind that the Chinese add only $4 to the IPod's $150 final value. Imposing duties on IPods to slash the deficit, then, won't just cost Chinese jobs in Beijing assembly plants, but American jobs in Cupertino (Apple's headquarters) computer labs."
