U.S. Manufacturers

[SheerLuckHolmes]

I just had a thought about the argument that no U.S. manufacturer would invest the time or money to develop a good affordable PV or atomizer with the threat of a ban. Why not?

Is there any country in the world where you can not buy a pack of Marlboro Reds? Is there any country in the world that you can not buy a MacDonald Hamburger? Is there any country in the world where you can not have a Budweiser? Is there any country in the world where you can not buy a Coke? Is there any country in the world where you can not buy Nike sporting goods? (Sure, I know there is at least one country, but you get my point!!!!)

To say that U.S. Manufacturer are limited to the US market is a Red Harring. I would venture to say that there are multiple US manufacturers that are researching the PV right now to get into the WORLD wide market as soon as they can. But why they are being stealth about it is beyond me.

won't matter who develops a product...they will still make them overseas because the labor is way cheaper.

I think that depends on what your definition of "affordable" is. That, plus I'd think a US manufacturer would produce higher quality products (or ones with more features) to justify the higher cost.

But none of the things you mentioned might be banned...and they werent under a possible review for ban..
Yes the US can supply any country they want, and do in many things, but PVs are currently seen as not 'viable for investment' due to the FDA action.
