I'm from Europe so I don't know in detail how USA works. But I guess it is quite similar to Europe, the price of the phone will rise so much that it won't be a good product. In the best of the scenarios the price will rise 20$ or 30$ ... well maybe, but launching a product is not always the best of the scenarios.
Apple already told in the past, that the main reason to keep the manufacture in China are the last minute changes. USA or Europe cannot deal with that kind of changes and the labor laws that we have doesn't help ... just my IMHO. Labor laws and labor conditions in China or India are cruel, but works for capitalist markets.
