Classe move to China

If you buy things made by slave labor you too will be enslaved.
We ALL know Lenin was not a nice guy ,on the broken clock is right twice a day factoid it doesn't bear mentioning.
Yes there are shades of gray but the people who harp on this are usually trying to excuse themselves for acting on
the many things that are just black and white.

An aside about 2012 Ford Focus IS built in Detroit.
The auto tranny is still made in Mexico, but the car itw=self is made in the motor city. I do not know right off where the manual tranny is made (like mine).

As for China, they are smart and predatory.
As soon as they have eliminated competition, they raise prices to the highest the market will carry.
They have already done so in several commodities.
This is a real war, and not some fantasy.
If America loses this secret war, we (as a world leader) are finished.
Seems America is dedicated to a global economy. Trouble is China sees it's future in the position we USED to be in: as world dominator. Trouble is China is NOT going to be anywhere near the nice guys we were. (Trouble is we were really not very nice guys,..China will be way worse.. but that gets into the political and better to avoid it before this thread gets removed)

Perhaps Classe should build the same amp in Canada and China and sell them at $5,000 and $3,000 respectively and see what people end up buying - I suspect money talks.

LOL, you cannot be that naive. Why would any person in business drop their price $2000 on what is supposedly a $5000 amp. The only reason for lowering the the price of the amp would be to compete with your competition and maybe get a bigger piece of the market pie. The rest of the savings would go in the wallet.....

The country is already on life support and it will take quite a bit to get it back on its feet, let alone back to its former position as a world economic leader.

Trouble is China is NOT going to be anywhere near the nice guys we were.

Very true, the Chinese government is licking its chops.

(Trouble is we were really not very nice guys,..)

Glad someone realizes this.

As for Lenin, he was bad, but the Tsar's before him and Stalin after him were far worse.

Life support?
Try a dead corpse being fought over by vultures for the scraps.
