I would say my ball park would be 70% of our customers would buy American if it were the same price, but just don't want their noses rubbed in the fact that their item is made in china, and 30% wouldn't care either way.

The problem isn't that Made in USA is 5% more expensive. It's 25% more expensive, and very few people pay that.
America could get price-competitive in that 5% range, if there were not a pervasive belief that every American should earn $25 per hour for work that can be done elsewhere for $5 per hour.

Sure, you can also get there with tariffs ... if you are a big government authoritarian.
