'Made by America' could be a marketing thing to try in the US. Sweden does it with Volvo cars and most people still believe Volvo cars are made in Sweden, the text is so similar you hardly notice the difference



> most people still believe Volvo cars are made in Sweden

But they are made in Sweden?

"Designed in the US" is the usual marketing ploy which is marginally more honest.


Also "Designed in European Country, [ah, but] made in Asian sweatshop", is very common 'over here'. Just seems so....cheap, exploitative and somewhat embarrassing to me. I try to avoid them.


Many companies absolutely lean into Made in America.
