Not everyone shops on price alone. Shipping rates, availability, country of manufacture, warranty and return policy all come into play. How many people could care less where an item is made as long as they get that lower price, cheap, cheap, cheap rules the day. It's what keeps Walmart in business, cheeeeeeper. Start buying the higher priced American made products and the Chineese will dry up and blow away. Unfortunatly that will never happen, because you got to get it cheeeeeper.
Shop value not price.
Ask yourself "would I be willing to work for Chineese wages?" . If so we can compete with the Chineese. Employers can then find the cheeepest labor and produce the cheeeeepest products right here in the good Ole' USA. You could buy your new 40 horse Mahindra for $4,000. Oh wait!! If I work for 25 cents an hour I'd never be able to afford my American made 40 horse $4,000 tractor, or the fuel to run it. Keep shopping for those cheap prices. I don't have the patience for it.
Capital will always chase cheap labor.
