    1. Its not the planning, its the cost and regulations in the US. The cost of electricity is much higher in the US than other countries. The cost of land and building factories is less expensive in other countries. Labor is less expensive, even with livable wages. You are talking about Billion dollar facilities. Robots, Automation, etc, all are produced in Japan, Germany, China. Not in the US.
