A more probable outcome is that, like the way so many other goods have gone, the only choices you'll have left is cheap, low-quality goods. Think of all the high-quality products that used to be manufactured here in the USA that you just plain can't get anymore.
Manufacturers will make the goods that consumers demand; if the consumers demand low prices, manufacturers will make cheaper and lower-quality goods...
It's just economics, and math...
