There are so many benefits to American manufacturing. Making products in the United States helps to create a cleaner environment by being more cost effective, saving energy on the delivery, and less pollutive gases are emitted. When products are shipped overseas, a lot of greenhouse gases are discharged and manufacturing in America would then not require for those boats to travel.
Another bonus to manufacturing in the U.S. is that the standards are generally higher than those in other countries, therefore, the quality of the products is typically better. Specifically, the working conditions are better in America, which helps give workers more time and space to do their best work and results in higher quality products. An added benefit that comes of this is that the longevity of the product becomes increased.
