    From a business perspective: more control over the manufacturing process and less risk of getting hit by tariffs

      Less risk of tariffs on China, less risk of supply chain disruptions like with the pandemic, takes advantage of incentives from the US government, and is something that is cool to advertise.

        Not about being in the us specifically. But about keeping your manufacturing near your entire supply chain.

        But the uncertainty of what will come soon for tariffs is

                I actually don’t understand how it doesn’t. If it’s in the US, it’s domestic production. The US can run these places if it needs to, it can protect them if it needs to. It seems kind of obvious? Maybe I’m missing the point of your question though.

                I am impressed by the near equal up/down votes on your original comment.

        Tariffs change. Especially when Trump or another nutcase is in office.

        Tariffs in general aren’t new, but Trump’s tariffs were applied haphazardly and poorly determined because he doesn’t understand what they are. Avoiding that uncertainty entirely is a good idea.
