No not quite that simple. Take Traeger Smokers for example. A profitable company who chose to outsource its manufacturing to China to improve profits. Consumer cost did not change but product reliability changed for the worse. It is not like we are buying Chinese products developed and designed there, they are for the most part only built there under contract from foreign companies. This process has gutted our manufacturing base and produced inferior quality products in many cases. This practice is a product of the disposable era and it is one area the US Govt should be involved and it is unfortunately turning a blind eye to the problem and encouraging the practice. Since China artificially deflates the value of its currency, the only option we have left is to levy import duties on the products once they hit our shores to negate the affect and benefit of this practice.
