The Chinese can make anything as well as anyone else.  The problem is
that they make exactly what they are asked to make.  People at Harbor
Freight request cheap tools and the Chinese deliver.  The Chinese make
everything from pencils to nuclear power plants.  They made a version
of the AK-47 that was adopted by the US Navy
SEALS after testing against several other AK variants from European
and Middle Eastern makers.
You can get junk from China, India, Taiwan, Japan, Mexico, Texas,
England, etc.
One out of every 1000 or so things from Harbor Freight are good items.
 Many more are "kits" that can be made into useful items.  But, the
Chinese aren't flooding the States with junk because they can, they
are doing it because someone is paying them to do it.
