If you could chose,

Would you prefer Sushi that was made in Japan or Sushi made in America

Would you prefer Italian food made in Italy or made in America?

Would you prefer Sony, Canon, Panasonic electronic made in Japan or America...

Etc etc...you get the idea.

I wouldn't say I would never buy a BMW that was made in America, but I would be less likely to buy if it was.
Actually I like the Italian food in the US much better then the Italian food when I went to Italy

But I get your point.
