98 % of the Products I buy are made in China!

/----/ "The made in America moved to made in China to increase profits."
Correct. To escape libtards' environmental laws, labor laws and taxes that were squeezing profits.

John Deere moved a manufacturing facility from Coon Rapids, MN to Saltio, Mexico.

The JD facility in Mexico can pollute the air & the water unimpeded, they pay their workers next to nothing, no health insurance, the workers obtain no OT pay after 40 hours a week, and the workers are subjected to a much more dangerous work environment without benefit of an OSHA type agency oversight.

Just the kind of place Republicans would love to work in & love to reside near: Republicans could get injured on the job, endure bodily injury & death, and at the end of the work day Republicans could go home & enjoy their polluted neighborhood breathing crappy air & drinking crappy polluted water.

Of course, all this compliments of American companies that care nothing about the labor force, nor the environment, no matter on which nations soil the facility resides.

/—-/ Then make the USA more business friendly.

So, you desire to make the air & water in the US polluted beyond human use, no benefits for workers, basically you desire to turn the US worker into a slave, go back in time, and MAGA.

That is the problem with 'the party of Nixon & Trump' ................ reality is not in the cards for them.

What happened to made in America? Profits.

I worked in manufacturing for many years. We have supplied some of the world's largest OEM companies and, as a result, I have seen first hand how they apply pressure throughout their supply chain to offshore to cut costs. Our customers were telling us to move operations, in some cases threatening us with going elsewhere if we didn't. One company even offered us space in one of their China-based facilities to set up operations.

In addition, when it comes to pricing, when they weren't demanding and X% per year reduction, they would accept as a basis for increases the cost of raw materials, in some cases the costs of energy, but in no case the cost of labor or local taxes as their view was we shouldn't be here and they weren't going to foot the bill for our stupidity in staying here.

These are American companies, the head of one of which was Obama's "jobs czar". lol.

Greed. That's what's happened. China is getting theirs, but US companies have been fucking us every bit as hard when it comes to shipping jobs overseas, don't kid yourselves about that- and it's all to drive profits and stock price.

This all started 100 years ago with the large corporations shitting on labor & the unions.

It snowballed form there & the large corporations figured out how to get the politicians in their pockets.

People are just too stupid to understand this problem didn't happen over night; it is decades upon decades in the making.

It won't be undone; too much money in it for the status quo .......... PROFIT ............

So why do you buy Chinese made goods?
Because China is the numero uno polluter bar none!

Every smart phone, every car part, every
Socket wrench made there represents
Tons of CO2 , Nox and Sox!

98 % of the goods I buy are made in China. There does seem to be a severe trade imbalance here. What ever happened to made in America?! Your thoughts.

Don't go to dollar tree?

You may well be right.....but it's worth a try and Tariffs are a good place to start.
Understand this.... ultimately it is a consumer decision.

unions were under MAJOR attack OVER 100 years ago; go look at the history of Carnegie Steel which became USS.

Why? You to cheap to buy quality..

I purchase rare guitars & I sale them to make a profit.
I purchase European automobiles to enjoy.
I purchase fine cigars to enjoy.
None of that is produced in China.
I appropriate a very small percentage of my discretionary expenses for Chinese made goods.

How is this shit working out for you?
