Its hard to find anything these days that isn't made in China but that is not the argument, is it? Of course quality things *can* be made in China but when someone is just looking for the cheapest option possible, I would assume it won't be made in the same place that makes iphones or swiss watches. Manufactoring in general is going to hell. Using plastic parts on things that used to be metal, which don't last as long. They are always looking to make their products cheaper and keep selling them for more.
