I think I'm done here.
Of course you name computer companies. Boy, there's shocker that computer parts are made in Asia.
The best guns are made in Germany, the best watches are made in Switzerland, the best cars are made in Germany, the best motorcycles are made in Germany.
I'm sure that the Taiwanese bikes are fine, but I would definitely rather see "Made in Germany" than "Made in Taiwan." I'm not buying sneakers, I'm buying a road bike. We wonder why our country is in so much debt. Maybe if we didn't employ India and Asia we would be doing better. Just a bunch of old, fat, cheap pieces of **** that live for profit margins. Instead of making $800/bike, make $600/bike and employ ****ing Americans. Naw, that would never happen though. Then they could only afford a Ferrari 458 Italia and not the Aventador that they really want. This country is so ass backwards it's sickening. I miss the 70s when common sense was more important than 10% more money. This country ceased to be the United States by the early 90s. Now it's a "melting pot" of obesity and greed.
