Isn’t it great we finally have a President bringing manufacturing jobs back into America?Glad you agree that we’ve finally got a great President.Good, then you support Trump eliminating the regulations since you claim they’re no impact upon anything.And clothes washers too.
“Why is Trump talking about dishwashers?” asks Slate. “It’s part of Trump’s core campaign message: nostalgia for a fictitious era in American history where everything was better, simpler.”
Maybe. But there’s also this reality: he is 100% correct about this whole topic. It’s a big and important one too.
American dishwashers used to work. They were wonderful labor-saving devices. They kept our kitchens cleaner. They sanitized the dishes, helping to stop cross-contamination and generally improving health over the iffy process of handwashing. Also, as with all household appliances, they made life better, reducing one more chore that was widely seen as women’s work.
Then one day they just stopped doing the work.
What happened?
Older models of dishwashers used 15 gallons of water. Today the typical “Energy Star” model will attempt to wash with three gallons. Sorry but that’s just not possible, no matter how many fancy tricks you try.
Dishwashers used to wash all the dishes in under one hour. Now they take two hours, three hours, and four hours, and still don’t get the dishes clean. So much for saving on energy. Less water, sure, but more electricity — and what does it mean to save resources when the thing doesn’t work?
All of this is directly due to government regulations.
Let’s Talk about Ghastly Dishwashers
Deregulation will help them get their lives back.
These regulations have caused an infuriating and devastating degradation of the quality of appliances and the quality of life in our homes.
nothing could possibly be further from the truth
the NRTL's loosened up their standards, . allowing 3rd world manufactured appliances easier entry into the USA. There have been a number of CSPC recalls
the backlash was overprotective codes made explicitly for dishwashers
Fact is, if they didn't lower the bar, we wouldn't need tariffs
And YOU would have a better DW'er
~S~
Trump is essentially advocating free trade, IE>Give us your tired huddled dishwashers from some globalists wretched sweatshop
Livin' the impact of that has been>>
Half a million dishwashers recalled due to risk of fire
Fiery Dishwasher Recall Expanded To Cover 557,000 Total Machines

Wall street icons advocating free trade thru deregulation are what tanked american manufacturing, american jobs, american middle class, etc
