LOL, what a headline? I was in Europe a couple of years ago, its the same story there. If it was made of cloth material it was from China. Add plastic and metal also. I just love those screws and nails from China, they work great on Styrofoam boards. Use them on wood they will bend, or the screw head will turn to mush. Gotta love the cheap labor.
Inexpensive materials.
They gotta be made over there. Cheap. It will emphasize how other countries are being left behind while others such as India, Thailand are now tigers and Poland/Hungary are not under the communist thumb anymore. It’s called changing with the times. Hong Kong was always ahead of the others and the big bad mama is losing control.
