Ted, I want to personally congratulate you for being right. First time and fairly momentous. Congratulations!
Devaluing craftsmanship is how the U.S. single-handedly built the Chinese economy, shipping jobs overseas and developing our own service economy with low paying jobs where people themselves are devalued. At least with low wages we can still buy cheap Chinese junk. So it's a win for everyone.
Greed has won out over craftsmanship.
