Your analog doesn't really make sense to me. For one I have learned not to buy shitty tools that will break on the job. I could only imagine phones and other technology would be more durable and last longer if made in the USA. We buy Milwaukee power tools which I believe are made in the USA. We go to wholesale plumbing stores that the general public can't just walk in and buy stuff it's not like going to Lowes or Menards.
Even Delta faucets in a hardware store are made cheaper or were faulty and fixed, with plastic parts on the inside because those chains will only pay so much so they cheaper them down.
when i built up my titanium bike i went with a lot of made in the usa parts,it roughly doubled the cost of the bike...but you don't hang a bunch of cheap parts on a 2400 dollar frame...
good tools are a must...
