    Shipping thousands of parts from many countries half a world away to assemble in the US is super expensive compared to choosing a location where most of the parts are made and just shipping the finished product to the US. This is a no brainer.

    If you want to bring back manufacturing to the US, you must bring back everyone including the parts and component suppliers, train a new generation of manufacturing engineers and technicians,build a distribution system, establish auxillary services and improve access to raw/direct materials etc. It would take decades.
