Do you guys have a problem with China made tools??

I hate chinese made tools, they ****. I had a lot of chinese tools, wrenches, sockets, snap ring pliers etc from horrible freight that broke.

I have an issue when I buy something from a company like Klein that I assume is always made in the US, only to find out it's made in Taiwan. I don't think it should still cost 13 bucks but then again, I did not verify COO before purchasing.

Chinese communists have nothing to do with making our tools its capitalists who own the factorys there, its capitalists who outsourced production from USA to CN.

I have a problem with certain companies charging "USA" prices for tools made outside the country.

I have a problem with certain companies charging "FRANCE" prices for tools made outside the country.

That is so true, when talking about high end stuff, like say Milwaukee tools. They made the best IMO and now are made mostly in china, the cost of the tool went down and for what I have purchased so did the quality, but the price sure didn't fall, seems to have went up. I have tried as hard as I can to stay away from buying anything made overseas unless it's a last resort. If we were to protest with our wallets then maybe something will change

here in the USA we have this system that weeds out inefficiency, mismanagement and general **** called capitalism.

Err... have you worked in corporate America?
