The destruction of ALL WESTERN WORLD manufacturing has to be one of the biggest tragedies of the last 40 years not just America your only one country it's many countries that China has destroyed their manufacturing.
I could tell you how it changed two successful business that I owned, I never went broke but I closed down the reconditioning side and bought brand new Chinese items cheaper than I could recondition them for and this is 30 years ago! Lots of people lost their jobs lots of skills lost to enable me to keep the doors open but that's another story not for here. I've been through it only not with model trains.
I'm just hoping for my childrens sake that eventually China will get greedy and price themselves out of the market then we will have to start again not me I'm old and retired. Roo.
