It's not the LEDs themselves that are a problem there, but the driver circuitry in the "bulb"[0]. There are a fair number of these being made in the US and Europe, not just China. Significant numbers of LEDs are also made outside China - Cree manufactures LEDs in both the US and China; Nichia manufactures LEDs in Japan.

[0] Bulb is not really an accurate term here. Maybe bulb-replacement?
