    In the US a product only has to be 10 percent US made to be “made in the US”. Also, when you import something into the US and export it again, it’s “made in the US”.

      Yep, that’s exactly why i think it’s a scam in a big scale. Sure it depends on the country how much value added or how much the product needs to be made in that country but it’s always relativly little. Just selling the same china stuff with inflated prices to customers who think they are supporting local production of the goods.
