From what I can make out, most of the crappy things made in China have familiar US corporate names on them.

But I guess these same corporations that make crappy things in China could make crappy things made in America instead.

<<thought briefly about opening a retail store selling quality products. i was going to call it "Not Made in China">>

it is best to keep such impractical thoughts to just a wish, for it is a deadend for deadenders due to several practical facts:

(i) you will quickly go out of business most likely, and at best serve the classes and live like the masses for a while, until

(ii) the classes raise your rent, and the masses carve out their ever rising wages because their rent went up

(iii) the classes or the masses set their legal beagles on you for one thing or another

(iv) the classes and the masses lift your tax rate

... all because the CB Ilaines of this world unthinkingly trust the sort like Maestro Greensputin and worships the ilk such as Charlatan BurnAndKaput.
