Apple starts iPhone 15 trial production in China, plans faster India manufacturing

Pro models are bit heavier than non-pro. Hopefully, replacing with titanium will help reduce weight. For NPI issue in India, Apple can start new model/product production early in China then after product announcement, ramp up in India.

Reliance on foreign labor to produce goods for our domestic market is just putting off the day of reckoning for global corporations. When Japanese workers demanded middle class wages, manufacturing went to Mexico and South Korea. Koreans wanted to buy what they made, and wages increased, shifting manufacturing to China, Indonesia and India. As those economies lift their workers into the middle class, the last cheap labor pool, Africa, is next. Once they develop and boost their workers into living wages, what happens? We'll have no one to subsidize our lifestyles with their cheap labor pools, and we'll have to pay the real cost of the goods and services we use. And that's the end of the line for $1,000 iPhones, $10 shirts, $300 TV sets, affordable home computers, and many other things.

Better start saving now, if you're under 40 years old.

You need to write to your congressman to cut down federal spending especially in national defense. LOL

National defense is the biggest scam ever perpetrated on Americans. No one outside the Pentagon (and most inside) knows the ratholes those trillions of our treasure have disappeared into. And we just keep pouring more and more into those black (ops) holes. Eisenhower knew a thing or two about national defense:

Washington DC has the fourth most millionaires in US cities. The assistants of congressman/woman will find a good paying job after departing.

You aim too low. It's not the assistants who make big money after getting ousted or retiring. It's the congresscum themselves who get paid millions lobbying (bribing, if you will) their former colleagues. And let's not forget retired generals and admirals who go to work lobbying for defense contractors. Now that's REAL money!

Their methodology is actually very simple: creating an enemy. The Americans cannot resist. This is the spirit of Western culture. For example, when I point out untruths of China news, immediately someone here lied about me as a CCP operative. The hatred in western culture is rampant. This is the root reason why there are so many shootings such as the Idaho University killings of four students and killer is a PhD student in criminology. The killer may have a small grievance toward one of the student, But he blows it up. The foreign elites will not discuss this domestic crime. Because the thinking of the killer is the same as their hatred toward China.
