I’d like them to add a Made in USA section where people can find tariff free products that support local businesses and workers.

- NicuCalcea 2y agoI would also like a filter like that, though for a different purpose.
- tnel77 2y agoWhile I agree with you, I think it would be extremely rare (maybe impossible) to have a truly tariff-free product. Yes, all of the parts and assembly for a product can occur in the United States, but what about the tools they use? What about the semi and the fuel it uses to bring you those tools? While there will certainly be companies that don’t directly pay tariffs, it will be hard for just about every domestic manufacturer to be completely shielded from their effects.
- jghn 2y agoThis is incredibly naive. How can you possibly know the source of every component and raw material in what you're buying? "Made in USA" *at best* translates to "assembled in the USA"
- ChoGGi 2y agoI'd rather a percentage made in, so you can get an idea of how "made in America" something is.
- Workaccount2 2y agoPeople won't use it. Even with tariffs, stuff is still cheaper than made in usa. People are going to be pissed that a basic clothes iron now cost $80, but they will not go buy the $225 that is made in texas or wherever. Especially when it is no better, and likely even worse, than the $80 one.
- bluGill 2y agoI have done that, but it is a lot of work for the same quality (though it generally gets rid of the junk)
