Incompetence Rant
It all started with the Industrial Revolution. It makes me think of that 80's movie Maximum Overdrive where the machines take over the world while AC/DC's Who Made Who is playing in the background. After that the unions were part of the problem, they were trying to protect the workers(I think) with better pay and benifits and the powers that be took there stuff to a cheaper place. Plus this country thinks it has to help every other nation while thousands of people here have lost there homes and there are no jobs to speak of. Heck even the illegals are going back home. You hit it right on PFogal. Oh yeah one more thing about stuff made in the USA, most of it is junk anyway due to the greed factor. American Chopper comes to mind, made here, speciality product, but these guy are kind of hacks. Remember the Dixe Chopper bike? The rear was off like 1/2" to one side and they beat it straight with a MALLET. Yeah I want to pay top doller for that. Not to mention the Leno build when they beat the crap out of the crate that the front end was in. Just my morning rant.
