Who do you think is buying all these products? The American people demand more want more so price has always been the biggest influence. Some people don't have a lot of money aren't able to make other choices. I grew up in the 50's remember all to well making fun of products that came out of Japan, their automobiles were at that time "junk", but people bought them anyway, so you have keep this in mind when considering how we got here. Prices of products for most practical purpose is affected by labor cost. Buying American products isn't as easy as you think, I try too buy American products but you don't always have a choice. We pretty much did it to ourselves. On the other hand our Government did not put in the proper stops on imports in order to have Trade balance. Just my view.
We can literally write a book on this subject matter.
Library sections.
that's true and you make a good point.
