That makes sense, although since I've owned a Honda for so many years and it was made/assembled in Marysville Ohio, it feels American to me. And I've always appreciated what Taiichi Ohno and Shingo have done for American businesses when they taught us lean manufacturing techniques.

The only company I purposely boycott is Toshiba. And that's because I still haven't gotten over them selling high-tech milling equipment to the Soviets, who were then able to dramatically improve the design of their submarine propeller in a very short amount of time.

I suppose I should have an issue with Chinese products, but for some reason I don't really associate them with the Chinese government since some American multi-national company probably runs the toy plant.
