While I'm happy ta accept Golly might seem ta have a bit of a bug up his bum about buyin' some Chinese made shit at this time, there's no way in shit I'll accept that he's a racist.
I'd prefer to be called a racist over being a 'politically correct rent seeker.'
Now I've worked him out It explains a lot about our little today fiend.
Bullshit. Unless they're stood over by high tolerance measuring quality control, they cut cornes, substitute material, not reject errors in production etc.
It is why for high end products, China is simply being used for assembly.
my not buying Chinese shit not racism. At one time, my family wouldn't buy Japanese, not because of racism, but because the Japanese made crap at the time. Where possible, I buy German, Italian, Danish and Japanese.
And unless it is from a smaller family operation, I stopped buying Australian made in the late 1980s early 1990s.
E.g., the award winning Little Guy espresso machine. Great product, great quality, and price point is close to where I think it should be.
They don't make iPhones in China, they only assemble them there.
A few parts like the finger print sense, the chasis, and some batteries are made in China, but virtually everything else comes from elsewhere.
a list of their supply chain is public information, or lists exist.
ok, So would an I-phone be available today if the Chinese part of the production stop??
My point being, that the section the China does is or appears to be top of the line work, (for Apple) so to imply that Chinese work personship is somehow inferior to other Work Personship is erroneous.
Entertaining but totally erroneous.
The Chinese just make cheap shit because that is what is asked of them.
The fool is the person that says, Cheaper prices are just the beginning.
No???
Please study the list below and you will find out where the "dumb" Chinaman comes.
Lift your game Aussies, this is changing for ever...One of my true pleasures in life is to watch morons laugh at smart people, tell the smart people how dumb they are, insult the intelligent monkey, then i wait.
On to a more savory subject, i am here in Gnarabup, sipping a coffee in the office, watching the most beautiful waves hit the beach, while observing the whales playing near the reef.
Almost no wind. slight offshore, opening up the waves.
Heaven on earth.
The birds are visiting now, there is a Pink and Grey that has been adopted by a family of Magpies. They are sitting right outside.
Just because they make shit stuff doesn't mean they're dumb, and I never implied that.
They are going through the same progression most western countries did when they industrialised, right down to pollution, child labour, slavery, etc, and they are now starting to address most of these issues.
So they are bringing in food standards, product safety legislation , pollution control etc.
They have suffered centuries of innovative stagnation due to Confucianism and closing their borders, which wasn't helped by another 50 years stagnation under communism.
That is changing and they are becoming a major force for innovation with a massive increase in i.p. through patents, but invariably they are still in the producing shit stage.
They are now making their first large passenger aircraft, but still haven't made a formula 1 racer or a superbike.
They are pretty much where Japan was in the 1950s/60s and where England/France etc were in the 1890s.
I can't wait till I can buy products from then I can trust, but to date apart from a couple of companies like Huawei, they are not doing a great deal to promote manufacturing excellence or quality acceptance through industrial standardisation. (Although they demand quality in their imports lol)
I'm happy to do my part in bringing about quality in China by bagging them for the shit they predominantly make, and the fact they rip of everyone else's i.p.
Thumbs up to a little Aussie family company for taking them on over this and winning!

"Lucas Mills: Family's fight to stop Chinese copies of sawmill in cutting-edge case".
No, no, no.
You are totally missing my point, in fact the average i.q. of a Chinese person is way above the average Australian.
That to one side.
I the Dumb Aussie say to the smart Chinaman, please make me the cheapest shit on earth, what does the Chinaman say???
Aussie you are too, too, too dumb to talk to, i am going to build a wall to keep you dumb phuck away from me and my children.
Wait a minute they already did that.
So dumb dumb, how cheap do you want it again???
Because cheaper is better, right???

If you know someone can not produce an article and make a profit so he can live, how can you with any conscience buy it.???
I remember being at the ghost city on the Yangtze River before it was flooded, i got off the river boat, went to the temple, there was a chair lift to the top, a sign read, if you have a heart condition do not use the chair lift, use the stairs
Many cultures can, and have built things that lasts... that ability is not in question.. what is in question is the fraction of products that come out of China that are great quality, and the fraction that are very low standards.
The willingness and ability to mass produce products of very low quality which are faked to appear as good quality is stunning... Buy Chinese bolts at your own risk if you need
From Bolts to Wiring, fakes that can cause death are sold in very large volumes... Their production standards will improve, as will their reliability of quality products and trustworthiness when it comes to the quality of product... it would be incorrect to assume that we are there by a long shot.
Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.
