My post was unclear. I was just thinking about outsourcing of services, not products. Compared to 10 years ago - people have chosen quantity over quality. Customer service outsourcing is one thing that really pisses me off.

These days people want cheap gizmo bullshit in their cell phones - no complains about dropped calls! I WILL PAY for a cell phone worth paying for. I DO NOT WANT cheap shitty products. However the US demands cheap goods so that's the supply that develops. The auto industry does not set the benchmark for American products in general, so that argument is invalid. I think products are artifically cheap because of how China is undercutting everyone and playing and UNFAIR game.
