The Chinese are making cheap electronics and everything else. The Americans are fat and lazy and like to pray a lot.

As long as the Chinese boom continues to fuel WA's resource market, China FTW!

We both want to invest in the Chinese economy ?

Almost everything I own, electronically speaking, has Chinese markings on it, if you dig a little deeper.
I remember when Pioneer sound gear was pretty good stuff. Recently I bought a packaged surround system. I was shocked when I saw that most of the components came from China. Damnit, it used to say "made in Japan". In those days you were getting a pretty good product.
Guess I'll be moving to Denon...FTW.

Made in Japan electronics are bulletproof, just like American made home appliances back in the days. My parents still have fridge, vacuum cleaner, washer/dryer that were made in the 80s. Now everything breaks after the warranty expires. Even the much vaunted Sony products are crap now, since they're made in Mexico or China.
