I see these arguements all the time but when you see the factory its all robots.

I bought some plastic clothes pegs at the supermarket the other month - they were made in Melbourne. In my mind its 2 or 3 people nursing a second hand injection moulding setup in a low rent semi abandond light industrial area.

Some of this stuff can be done but I don't know about solar panels specifically. I bet asianometry could do a good video on it.
