They were the reason for Japanese cars coming to and taking over the industry during the 70's and 80's. Yes, automakers were part of the reason as well. There are always two sides to economics, supply and demand. I don't go to Walmart either. I look for American made first, Japan next, Mexico, and so on. I will take any product made elsewhere over Chinese made. Your comment on shaky ground is a false narrative. We have been on shaky ground before. I am not going to convince you to my side nor will you convince me to come to your side. Debate is good as longer as there is willingness to listen and learn from both sides.
It’s a fair rebuttal. I actually like your Top 3 for similar....lesser evil mindset
