On one hand, folks complain about being outsourced to cheaper labor. On the other hand, folks aren’t willing to pay more. Why buy a $20 craftsman tool set from sears made in USA when you can buy the $4.99 special from walmart made in china?
F_L_U good point about the buying complaining hypocrisy.
Like the auto industry, sadly, the additional cost in many American made products provide little if any additional benefit to the casual user. More importantly, the casual American’s disposable mindset fits better with building junk that lasts one to two years than it does with building something that will last twenty.
Who knows maybe a twenty housing credit bubble hangover will due the US good.
