USA pretty much makes nothing these days. Why pay a union guy a good wage when you can get a Chinese laborer for $1.00 a day? They tell you it is because they need to compete in the world market. All about the profit. Even if it says "Made in the USA" it probably isn't. If the parts are made someplace else and then "assembled" here, it can be labeled as "Made in the USA". And the Chinese are well know for fudging on specifications. Look at the recent issues with lead paint in childrens toys, dishes, etc made in China.
