$100? A Vitamix blender, made in the US, $599. Walmart blender, made in China, $13.47
A PS4 pro made in the US would be a lot more than $100 extra.

My Bimmer cost me 50k, i wouldnt buy a chinese car for 10k.  You seem to be avoiding that quality costs.

no wonder apple and foxcon are contemplation moving iphone production to US.  

 

That's not the whole picture
This means that assuming all other costs stayed the same
Building the plants, retooling the plants, powering the plants, securing the plants, insuring the plants, will all cost a lot more.

Anyway building it in the USA doesn't mean it will be of higher quality. If you want higher quality too the price will raise a lot more.
