Good news is, you will never be able to stop hobbyist 3d printing.
Sorry patent trolls, you can't make aluminum extrusion, stepper motors, an extruder, and a short circuit illegal.
The problem is that most people aren't making RepRap printers from scratch, they're buying kits which has everything included.
Bambu makes decent gear, I don't think we want to have the only option being Chinese machines which always makes compromises to make it cheaper. And that's coming from a person who uses Chinese printers.

When you shut everyone else down, they're the only guys left with the freedom to do business.
Are there any American made printers?
Isn’t Prusa expanding to the US or something? Thought I saw it somewhere.
a voron is american made depending on where you make it
