Minus the incidentals, that is. Additional revenue means additional taxes, for one example.
I'm afraid we would be hard pressed to find an item that is 100% USA, identical to one produced somewhere else for the same price. It would be an adventure just to track one down.
Most of us are happy to oblige if we stumble over such a thing, but most of us want the best price, or the brand with the best reputation.... where it is made is not generally the first priority.
That was drummed out of us a long time ago.
I like Diane Sawyer, but her horse has seen better days, sadly.
