What are you talking about? Does the night nurse know you have internet access?
You stated offshoring doesn’t lower retail prices. Small engines are just about a disposable commodity due to offshoring. Every single maker of old school cast iron awesomeness is either bought and moved over there or the manufacturing is. Those new Predator brand engines flooding the market are an American optimized Honda design made in, IIRC, in Taiwan.
I’d love for those things to still be made here but someone has to weed out about 20,000 pages of ADA, EPA, and OSHA bullshit to do it cost effectively. And I’m not talking about VOC saturated water and spike covered floors either, but all the stuff like 1/2 in toilet to wall violations and use in leu of disposal etc...
