And that's the rub - everybody outsources, including other countries besides us. Every time somebody attacks Wal-Mart for using Chinese products, I point to Phillips Electronics - same thing. Sony PS3 - made in Japan, Malaysia, Korea or China.

I just bought An Ibanez bass - made in Korea.

And a Fender amp - made in Malaysia.

TTM is right; companies go where the labor is cheap enough that they can make products without going out of business.
