A large part of that problem is that the CONSUMER is the one demanding cheap products. With the cost of meeting EPA and OSHA regs plus labor plus meeting consumer demand for cheap products companies have to move production off shore to stay in business. The only solution is to get people to buy higher priced goods. Go tell that to the average Wal Mart shopper who in a lot of cases shop there because they have to. Now add in what they are not telling you. The US is the #3 exporter in the world. Guess we still do make things.
Traditional farmer is right. Farm prices especially are a case of supply and demand. When did wheat tank? Right after the president cut off sales to Russia over the stuff in the Ukraine. When did corn go down? The year after really high prices that cause some 33 million (that's with an M) acres of ground was taken out of CRP to put back into production. Supply far exceeded demand. Corn went down so a lot of that land is now in beans. What did beans do? Went down! Years ago a computer manufacturer mass produced 486 computers getting ready for what they thought would be a great Christmas season. The Intel released the Pentium chips about a month or so before Christmas. The computer maker then had warehouses full of 486 computers that no one wanted. So they sold them at a loss. Doesn't matter what business you are in, overproduction or production of something no on wants leads to disaster.
