A very important question to ask. Should the US make medical gloves?
Looks like most/all manufacturing happens in the SEA/China, so I can see the logic that it could be considered a military risk for it to not be manufactured/possibility to scale manufacturing in America.

Foreign made medical gloves have the same compliance to fulfill
They really, really don’t. I’m sympathetic to the goal of moving manufacturing stateside, but fixing regulatory hurdles needs to happen first. Just because a foreign glove manufacturer has to comply with the same safety/quality standards for their product only scratches the surface. Domestic companies also have to operate compliant with regulations regarding hiring, real estate, safety, finance, and many more. To be…

Sure, the planet can't die. But the people and animals on it can. But I have a feeling you knew what I meant and are just being deliberately obtuse.

Climate alarmism: when your house floods or burns in a forest fire.
Climate hoax: when somebody in another country's house floods or burns in a forest fire.

Who’s paying to bring online a factory that sites idle just in case? Are you also paying workers to sit there idle?
Well I wouldn't pay for it to be idle; if you want to ensure you have the ability to do it, then you buy some proportion of it's potential output at their increased costs; but while that's happening you work on all the reasons it's more expensive.
