I don't think "can" is the standard. Or at least it shouldn't be.
You left off "should"... We have swung way too far in giving away our manufacturing capacity on items that SHOULD be produced in this country...

The problem is that we don't really have the mechanisms to force these industries stateside without massive subsidization, etc. That, and for many things we don't have a decade for domestic options to sprout up and come online to meet demand.
In a perfect world you'd be right. But I think the total autarky ship has long since sailed for the United States.
