I have things made from all over the world. Even things assembled in USA from componants sourced from who know where ? Some things may even be all USA , but this is by no means a guarantee of quailty !
Most of the older made USA products tools and appliances come to mind ? held up very well and many are still in use. I have several Made in Japan items and some India wrenches that I'd rate among the best things I have ever owned ! I also have some China,Taiwan,and others ? that I wish I'd of never dragged home ! but some of it has been fine.
The poor quailty of the USA autos and trucks of the 1970's and 1980's is what gave companies like Toyota the boost to what they are today.

Thank goodness we have more choices then "the big 3" who for years cornered the markets and got stuck in a rut of selling us any ole thing. Now mix in Union and tax code problems you gave American Manufactures a death blow. It is way more complicated then this , but I feel this is the big reasons it all happened.
