But everyone should be able to understand the economic importance of having products being designed and built in their country. Especially if their country has been hit hard recently by manufacturing being moved to other countries.

  They do. Which is with they don't care for the USA. Naively, some readers though this thread was going to be about a car. Some of them actually fail to see how where a car is produced should influence its merits. They didn't realize that as the USA were involved, the discussion was doomed to degenerate into a mediocre and moderately interesting patriotic blabber. These readers simply lake basic knowledge of the average American state of mind. As someone who used to be one of them, I give you our sincere apologies and invite you to keep going on your war veterans and industrial pride.

    Hey, let's keep it civil. How often do you hear "Good to see New Zealand in the news!" or "This is a great thing for the South African startup scene!"? People have patriotic pride, but beyond that they like to see interesting things happen around them and see the positive economic impact that a successful startup brings. This has nothing to do with Americans specifically beyond the fact that there may be more Americans on this forum than other individual countries, so there are more comments. There's no need to come on here and spew anti-American sentiments like you are so coyly doing right now. Americans aren't leaving hateful comments on stories about other countries startup scenes. This is a story about a successful American startup doing their business in America in a fashion that is not the same as typical established American companies in their industry. And somehow you're surprised that local hackers are pleased by this?
