Let us all hope that the rest of the world does not come up (?) to US living
standards. After all, we use a disproportionate amount (if not most) of the
world's resources (energy, raw materials) while representing only a small
proportion of the world's population. No, I am not a US basher, we also have
disproportionate pluses as well (e.g., food production, medical technology).
However, let's keep in mind that it is often our arrogance and naiveté that
lead us to believe that the world ought to live like us!
Having said that -- I do believe that this topic, as evolved, belongs
elsewhere!

I would like to see the world have the same standard of living as the
U.S. I would also like to believe in Santa Claus. Through unions and
intrusive legislation, US companies are required to pay all these benefits,
or move factories elsewhere to avoid them. Their sole purpose for
existance
is to make a profit, not to care for their employees.
The only law that has ever worked is supply and demand.
By the way, I buy the highest quality tools and parts I can. I could care
less
where it's made.
