BuyDrive a new Chinese car 3613Well, yes, but haven't people always looked for a bargain? Decades ago bargains used to be called sales. One of the long standing rituals of...
Compartively china is.
Why don't you go baby sit a chinese supplier for awhile. Maybe you'll then understand that they aren't developing, improving, enhancing or making higher quality anything. It's about turning out tons of cheap poo. They'll change material and process on you to cheapen the stuff and increase their profit margins the moment you turn your back.
I am waiting for you to back up your statement of equivlence. Where is the list for foreign companies that shut down shop in their home nation and began production in the USA?
What you are trying to do draw a parallel between US and Japanese innovation with what has been occuring with China. There isn't a parallel. China doesn't represent innovative production techniques. It's cheap labor. Labor so cheap that modern automation is considered too costly. Ever design a product for manufacture in and say europe or the US of A? I have, it's not innovative in China. It's someone sitting there with a soldering iron. In Germany it's a state of the art piece of automation.

Manufacturing in China has no parallel to the advances made in the USA at that time. China is throw back to earlier forms of manufacturing because the labor is so cheap the automation, the factory effeciencies are skimped on because they would cost more money.
Where is the list of companies that relocated manufacturing to the USA in the 19th century? oops... no? They were supplying the people in the USA product at the price point they could afford. Made and sold in the US of A. You might be able to draw some parallel to production for Chinese DOMESTIC consumption, but that's it.
Why don't you spend some time in product development with the components and buttembly made in China. They aren't trying to learn anything. You'll be short changed the moment your back is turned. The production quality will go to poo the moment the engineer gets on the plane to go back to the USA.
You like paying full price for unauthorized material subsitutions and improper processing?
Of course, but the more content not made in china, the better.
