"Logotec makes all its mice in China. Most of the product value comes from American made chips, optics. Almost all flat screens made, of any size, use Corning Made in USA product."

Links?

"if you want to capitalize on it, buy property in India."

I don't know about that, Indian property laws are a pretty wierd. However it might be wise to buy index funds that track the emerging markets like India and Korea. I put some money into Vanguard Emerging Markets Index Fund. They have racked up gains of 50% and 60% in the last year.

American made chips - not likely. The simple optical readers in traditional mice are commodity chips - very low price and certainly available from China.
Optics in a mouse? If any - injection molded plastic made anywhere. Corning's flat screen facilities are in Korea, Japan and Taiwan (presently expanding this facility). They also have a glass facility for LCD's in Kentucky. The US has never been a player in consumer level LCD's.
