Did a check on my Schumacher Charger it was made in Mexico. The assumption that made in Mexico is junk is flawed A major vendor to my industry have used for 100s projects wanted to bring in a new product line that was dominated by a competing manufacturer. They did and investigation finding this USA company was having their very high quality product manufactured in Thailand where skilled workers worked for pennies compared to USA labor explaining the competitive pricing we were all taking advantage. Their metal work was beautiful paint finished flawless no dust or orange peel beautiful. This company would not go to Asia and looked at metal crafters in Mexico where they set up a new production plant. The quality and paint finishes are very good. In fact when an unusual project came my way that competitors walked away from they were able to manufacturer what I needed. Very happy client who was told by other vendors it could not be done. Not all products from Mexico and China are junk. What about you 1k cell phone?? As a vendor told me years ago it's about how much $$$$ you have to spend.

You chose to continue to fund the communist Chinese government whose war machine is funded with US dollars from cheap dumbasses like you. Remember that when the US and China are at war over Taiwan which is likely to happen before this decade is over! Me, I’ll continue to buy American made products and spend the premium $ happily for American labor, jobs and our economy unless I have no other choice!!
Happy American Labor Day, not Chinese slave Labor Day or Mexican drug cartel mules day! Last edited by 1320racer; 09-02-2024 at 11:33 AM. |

Groundstrap My comment was not directed to you. You seem to think it's all about you and your opinions are fact..... My comment was general info and real business experience not opinion. My guess is you do not know anyone who makes products here in the USA. Maybe you should have an in depth conversation with your preferred vendors to get the real truth. Where do the circuit boards and components come from???? All of those components in American Made products come from Asia: China, Vietnam, India.

You have triggered "Groundstrap", or any other truthful name(s) others call him. He doesn't like to hear the real truth about himself. Then he gets all flustered & uses "me face!" instead of my face! ![]() |

Is it me or is this thread getting awfully "political" and "threatening"?

Below is a truthful fitting name for "Groundstrap", also!
"Mr. Keyboard KAREN 1320" I think it would be catchier if it was 1320 Keyboard Karen. |

Man... even though I have not met many of you, and some I have talked/messaged with, I would never be so rude and disrespecful.
