Whe you have low overhead, and low wages, you can engineer good products, and have them be good.
In china, there is no OSHA, no overtime pay, no health insurance, no EPA, no workman's comp. No lawyer to help a worker if you get hurt. There is no unemployment insurance, either.
You cannot use Google, it is filtered by the governement. Most farmers farm 1.5 acres of land they do not own it, the goevernment leases it to them. Tennent farming.
I manufacture gears, and we always must compete with the Chinese and Koreans. They can pay a worker $20 a week, while we pay $20 an hour, plus all those services I had previously mentioned. So, they can buy the million dollar 6 axis machining centers that do a part completely in one setup, and then pay a parts changer next to nothing to swap parts. Acually, most larger businesses have robots swap the parts.
This is what is called a free market. Be glad you are on the purchasing end of low cost manufacturing. The other end is very challenging.
