So the American way is to demand that crappy products only be made in America? So the Patriotic thing is for American Consumers to pay 25% more for stuff of the same crappy quality but made in America.

When people bought American it was because our products were the gold standard of Quality. Now we have companies like GM that instead of modeling Toyota’s quality have decided to not change how they do business or make there product but demand that Uncle Sam bails them out.

Go ahead and import your lead paint toys and melamine contaminated milk. If it saves you a buck you get what you pay for. It won’t matter to your property values when your neighbors lose their jobs to a foreign source and lose their houses and there is nobody to come buy them back.

Look at Detroit and that is a prime example of what happens to a city built on industry that has been regulated and taxed out of business by the government. That picture will be coming to a city near you very soon. You want to support the turd world, you will get their economics and standard of living in your neighborhood.

America don’t make crappy products. American products have been under the watchful eye of countless inspectors looking at safety for decades. The crappy products are low quality imports, which aren’t held to the same standards as American products. If those crappy foreign products were held to the same standards of quality and safety, the cost would be very similar.

And if you think it is ok for your neighbor to be out of work because you sent your money to China, you are unAmerican. Your stupidity will catch up with your job security eventually. Freakin incredible.
