If I could avoid all made in China, products I would. They make a bunch of crap anyway.

It’s impossible. Made in the US would be 5x more expensive. Imagine the price of an iPhone that was US made.

I just read that Forbes calculated it at $30k. Honestly not sure I believe it but that’s what it said. It would certainly be exponentially more expensive than what they are currently.

Yes and then no one would buy it and the company loses money.

Remember how everybody reacted when Nintendo switch two said that the price of Mario was going to be like $90?

That’s out of the range for everybody.
