[QUOTE="L2land, post: 2844980, member: 126164"] Seems like all the outsourcing coincides with the time wages stagnated in the 70s and we became a debtor nation instead of the creditor we once were when it was real money. We’re all experiencing the effects of 40 years of fiat trash. We have to do business with China because they own a lot of our treasuries (debt). There’s benefits for the consumer along the way because of cheap goods but it has caught up. We struggle to produce here for what can be afforded because the dollar has been inflated so much. In 1930 a nice tailored suit could be had for $35. An ounce of gold. It still can but that’s $2000 now. Wages may go up but the purchasing power is only going backwards. Do the best you can on buying domestic. Seek out quality options that are made here and see if it works. It’s almost impossible to avoid buying foreign goods though. [/QUOTE]
