[Spridgets] Edward Demming

I agree that a return to Demming's methods would probably lead to an improvement in the quality of American built products, but I doubt that corporate greed would allow it.

What I believe is necessary is to impose a ridiculously high import tax on any American firm that produces its goods in another country. Import taxes to nations that are selling us their own goods could be more moderate, and generous tax breaks offered to corporations that perform all of their manufacturing within the US, using at least 90% American made equipment and parts.

My plan would increase job availability and pride in being able to claim American made. Once again, corporate greed would prevail, as upper management has grown accustomed to receiving salaries 3 - 500 times that of the people doing the actual work. Until something can be done about this, our country is doomed to become a third world nation, and it will probably happen within our lifetime.
