ASSEMBLED IN CHINA

HOW CAN A US BASED COMPANY, MAKE THE INTERNALS, ELECTRONICS PARTS, WOOFERS, TWEETERS, MIDRANGES, CABINETS ETC. ETC. AND THEN SHIP ALL TO CHINA, AND THEN SHIP BACK TO THE GOOD OLD US, AND, THEN TEST AND I GUESS DO SOME KIND  OF QUALITY CONTROL, PACKAGE AND SELL THEM. YOU HAVE OCEAN FREIGHT, AIR FREIGHT, GROUND FREIGHT, ETC.

THE POINT I AM TRYING TO MAKE IS THAT THIS COUNTRY IS IN DEEP TROUBLE, WE COULD DO THE WHOLE PROCESS HERE AND PUT PEOPLE TO WORK VS PAYING CHEAP LABOR OVERSEAS. THERE IS STILL A LOT OF COST INCURRED EVEN WHEN THEY DO THIS.

Dear ncun001: your stating absolute common sense! Problem with using it is the politically correct hypocrites of the world won't back common sense! It's the truth and we wouldn't want to discuss the truth that isn't politically correct!

I guess I should throw my computer and mobile phone away. I've had many speakers over the years and the only pair that had quality issues were Wilson Audio Sophia 2's...the finish started to peel. I don't think they are made in China.

One should not confuse Taiwan for China...  Taiwan believes in free enterprise.  So does, South Korea.  Its Communist China that sees no problem with slave labor.

It's like that old movie, The Formula, where Marlon Brando (an oil exec) tells George C. Scott (a reporter), "We are the Arabs".

That was in 1980. Ask any American business man or shareholder after a couple of stiff drinks and they'll tell you, to your face, "We are the Chinese" The mere passage of time hasn't changed a thing. We have to stop being so naive.

All the best,
