By producing everything you use in life?
Don't buy cheap shit you won't get cheaply made shit.
You're right. If I don't buy cheap shit, I won't get cheap shit. And since "made in China" is a byword for cheap shit, I try to avoid Chinese products.
My home was made in America. My car was assembled in America, and afaik, most of the parts came from Mexico and Japan. My microwave is Japanese. My shirt is from Taiwan. My computer is made from a ton of chips, Taiwan chip fabs. My tools are all made in America. I can go on.
Very little of what I have was made in China. Because China makes "cheap shit". Your words, not mine.
I sincerely doubt that. And last I checked, most chip fabs were not in China. There's a lot in South Korea, Taiwan, and Japan. And there's plenty in damn near every western country. Even the Netherlands has a few.
You need to realize that countries other than China have industry.
No good reason except basic pattern recognition.
Last I checked, China was a country. I think I won whatever shitty argument this was
You know, name calling doesn't work on me.
