We went through a period in the late 1960's and 1970's where the quality of products went down hill. This was the time of the Vietnam War, Nixongate,

and Jimmy Carter's malaise speech. A bad time for America and nothing worked.


It would seem that nothing works again, but this time it probably wasn't made in the USA. Maybe it was assembled here, with parts made in Shri Lanka, but most likely the whole darn thing was outsourced with parts made all over the world.


It is the revenge of the have-not nations. They are busy making junk and selling it to to the Americans who buy it because it has a cheap price or a name brand they recognize. But it ain't the same and it doesn't work.
