Yes, I'm sure you inspected every part. It is odd that 40-50 years ago Japan had robotic assembly lines for cars, by the 70's they hwere making some American car parts, by the 80's producing cars within our Country. Yet... all your parts were American.

Clearly a giant ass bridge and whatever else we don't have patents on.

We also do not have the ability to mass produce electronics on a scale to keep up with your economy.... we do not have enough equipment here to do it, nor enough places setup to do it, nor enough trained people to do it, nor enough low wage people to keep the cost of the product low enough so those people could afford it.

We're still one of the largest manufactures in the world... we just don't make the same shit we once did.
