Hello everyone, I work in a very multi-cultural environment, I'll say that up front.

If any manufacturer can produce a product that works for me, he can have my American dollars. Heaven forbid, but even if it's made from recycled armor plate from one of our thousands of decommissioned warships, if we (=elected people) were silly enough to scrap it.

The real issue, is buyers who say yes to inferior product. That teaches the manufacturer (not the real culprit, it's the middle-man who contracted him) that inferior is okay, let's try a little crappier for that next order, and repeat.

Manufacturers will produce goods that sell. If buyers don't want it, manufacturers will either perish or change until buyers do want the product.
