I hate hearing buy american. I lost my job in 83/84/85 due to cheaper machine tool imports. While everyone bought import cars, tv, radios, ect. While I bought American made cars ect. The mid 80’s was was a bad recession no one cared then.
Now I buy import stuff.
They just got done cloning a virus that will cost the world trillions. I have had about all of China I want. Their prices are going up and I hope they get plenty of competition shortly. I will pass on their saw kits.
From what I hear, their warranty isn’t worth cold sour owl squat.

Maybe the Chinese saws will be the wave of the future. If they bring up the quality and keep the cost lower.
In the past I took my turn in the chow line enough it’s someone else’s turn now over poor business practices. My wounds run deep it sucks when you want to work and can’t.
Nothing is made here anymore. Less and less made here. Even Harley parts are from japan.
Make America great again is a smoke screen to make new business contacts over seas. The American worker gets screwed again. We need a blue collar working mans president. Just watch who stocks booms on Wall Street.

Like the country that all these POS saws come from has?
Hey Bill you are on point this time. I asked my daughter (who works for Harley) and she said most stuff is made in Japan, China, and Thailand.

I think these billionaire / millionaire presidents and people in government hurt us common folk. Everytime we go up one rung on the ladder of success they slap us back down two steps. I’m retired but still feel bad for the common working man.

Ever take a front fork from Japan apart. They have sliders that can be removed and replace. The forks are works of art by themselves.there adjustable and high tech. I wonder how much they would cost if made here.
Don’t let these import cars that are so called made here. The finished parts are imported here and assembled here to beat the import tax plus they can say made in the USA.
Huh?
The last I checked we still have the worlds number one economy. Also I do not see China cloning a MS880 or a 3120xp. Why would they when sales volume would be so low.
The pet rock was my lesson that I suck at figuring out what people will buy. It's a A ROCK, who in the world is going to pay more than a couple hundred bucks per 14 yard dump truck for that!? As it turns out, lots of people.
Saw on 60 minutes years ago that the last completely American made car with 100 percent American made parts was the Edsel in the late 50s.

Riiiiigggggghhhht.... Walk through your house and pick up everything "made in China" and throw it out.. post pics of the pile. Then try to replace it all with "made in America" stuff. Let me know when you get it all done.

My apologies, I just noticed that you are from Ireland... Change that last statement to "made in Ireland"... Then let me know how it goes
It's impossible to get made in America products in Ireland. What I was referring to was buying things from China that can be sourced from other places. Saw/car parts, tractor parts, tools, materials etc.
Other things like furniture, clothes, household goods etc. I'm going to try and cut down on disposables and use once items. Sick of buying imported food too since we produce so much of it.
