it's ok for a company to extract the resource here in the United States, send it overseas to be manufactured and then sent back, and it's still half the cost to make it in the united states?

For example, hardwood floors... The white oak is cut in the United States, some in Missouri. It is cheaper to send it to China to be milled and finished, then ship it back. There's one sawmill on a ship that just sits in the Pacific. Maybe tariffs should be raised. I can't blame it ALL on free trade. Unions are hurting many areas.
