It's hard to move so many pieces of merchandise without a proper sales venue. mike The Department of Defense uses counterfeit Cisco routers. |

The products you mention above are mostly ASSEMBLED in America. Typically, the higher tech, higher 'cost of assembly' items (engines, trannies) are made in their home country. Oh, don't forget that the profit from your items above flow right to Germany, Korea and Japan, not here. They only built a few plants here because they had to -- for political reasons, a sop* to the gullible. * From the Merriam-Webster dictionary: sop: a conciliatory or propitiatory bribe, gift, or gesture |

The millions in payroll...that's just a bribe? Nonsense. The Asian manufacturers currently enjoy a moratorium on taxes, and the wages and benefits parity that Union contracts seek, so building in this country is just good, cost effective business. They build here because it's less costly to build here. In the case of the Germans, because they can actually build for far less than they can in their own country. And without as many rules and restrictions on employment. Again, less cost. Consistent quality. As for the parts source...imported parts for products built on American soil is nothing new. Ford, GM, Chrysler have been importing components for decades. And they're not alone. There are more Japanese parts on a Harley-Davidson than there are on a GoldWing. There are models of Honda automobiles that have never been built anywhere but Ohio, and exported back to Japan for sale. And don't be so quick to assume that all components come from oversees. Hyundai does a huge amount of the machine work for it's products in the US. So does Honda. Even Toyota outsources much of it's component stock from the US. Isuzu even has one of it's vehicles built by GM. But if you're considering parts source....GT microphones are assembled at a GT built and owned plant in China. The capsules and components are however, hand made by GT right here in the US. But the topic was "Made in the USA." And these companies DO build in the USA. "Made In The USA" is far from extinction. |
