Dude, you can. No one is stopping you. If you have issues with overseas businesses paying their workers less, don't use them. You can get them made in the states and you could even sell them for the same price as those made in China, but your profits will be lower.
And on top of that, government regulations are the reason the price difference is so large.
That is how the game works. The goal is to make a profit. Period.
You want to serve some noble ideal of supporting people here, more power to you, but realize it has a price. It always has. Noble ideals always come with a price.
That's my whole point scruffy, I can do that, I would do that.. most other people wouldn't and don't... that's why there are no jobs here for a lot of people.. cause the ones that can make jobs for people here outsource it to people overseas. And the smart ones "engineers" are to lazy, greedy, or not smart enough to design a good product here... and even if they did, their company would need to want to have it made here.. so that a quality product that was designed in the US, made in the US, and sold at a cheap price in the US sat on the counter at Walmart...

So youre saying its cheaper to manufacture items in a country where THEIR GOVT doesn't mandate a minimum wage?
And you still say govt isn't the problem?

All of your diatribes against those who are wealthy fall on deaf ears as far as I'm concerned. I work for a man who went to school, earned his way to doctorate degree, failed in business not once, not twice, but three times before succeeding, and his company is a thriving enterprise of made in the good old USA products. You focus on one part of worldwide trade and make a broad stroke assumption across a wide gamut of business and industry and conclude it's flawed. I factually know you are wrong.
I have a rich uncle who earned everything he has through hard work and sticking his neck out. My dad owns a company he has built from nothing to be one of the premier firms of its types in the state. My cousin has worked hard for the same company for twenty years, and was recently rewarded with a $1Million bonus. I work in a position I absolutely love. It creates wealth for my family and national security for our country. It has taken me a lifetime to build myself into the businessman I am and to be in this important role. I've taken multiple steps forward and many, many steps backwards in my career in order to get here. You, well .... you aren't in business anymore. But to you, someone else is at fault. You can't come up with a way to build a fruit slicer idea (I'm sure nobody has thought of that before
) so you blame China and greedy industrialists.
Everyone here appreciates the initial OP concerning ObamaCare, but your refusal to accept that this abortion of a law was passed by a Democratic president and a Democratic Senate without one, single vote of the Republicans, the so-called party of the rich, and yet.... here you are, casting blame and heaping scorn upon a very small subset of the populace; the rich, for being at fault. How you cannot see your flawed logic is beyond belief.
Your logic is flawed. Your whining is insipid. Your continued protestations backing your assertions prove to us that you are not very bright, even though you think you are. And finally, your musings on taking advantage of government programs show that you're easily willing to compromise your supposed "principles".
Why not go back to the OT, where maybe the minds there are more willing to participate in your ruse or your ignorance, whichever the case may be?
