It all depends on your definition of "made." A huge fraction of
electronic components and most silicon is fabricated in a variety of
countries in or close to Asia these days. There really isn't any choice
anymore. If your "made" includes them, essentially nothing electronic
is made in the US anymore. OTOH, if your "made" includes only
conceptual and detailed design, assembly, testing, and finished product
logistics, then there is a big difference between Elecraft and
FT<mumble> in terms of where it's made

And after reading all the comments on “why buy a K4, or even Elecraft when I
have Icoms et al, etc.” . Well I haven’t heard anyone say “MADE IN AMERICA”.
And as previously stated so well, add boards anytime to update or add desired
features without having to pay for another “box” to house all the interiors. Of
course this is in MHO.
