Made in USA

My amps are USA as well as my preamp, speakers, a DAC, and cables. My computer, phone, and all of my clothing are from elsewhere, as are yours. 

A fundamental principle of economic liberalism is that competition drives improvement and lowers costs, while also promoting economic growth.

Economic nationalism runs counter to this.

However, it isn't quite that simple because there are two important words that need to come before "competition" and that is "free and fair".

Which is why we have trade agreements. However, for all of the above conditionality, historical experience is that international trade drives growth and economic nationalism restricts it.

Apropos the USA, in the 1970's it took European and, even moreso, Japanese car makers to force US Automakers to wake up and raise what had become utterly appalling quality and efficiency standards. Just one example...

My system is mainly USA designed and made. ModWright, McIntosh. I also have Revel, Rega, Hana & Furman. I’ve made a long, and expensive journey to get to my system:

ModWright KWA-150SE SS Amps Pair, in stereo mode, running biamped Revel F228be’s

ModWright LS300 Tube Preamp, ModWright PH9.0X Tube Phono preamp, Rega P6 w/880 Tonearm and Hana Red MC, McIntosh MCD-550 CD/SACD, McIntosh MR87 Tuner, Cambridge CXN, Tube Modded by ModWright, 2- B&W 608 Subs and my own home built Media Server with 11TB of movies and shows.

the soundstage is wide and 3D and being dual mono from input to output gives great clarity and distinction. 

Clearly the imperial project to convert westerners into a seething anti-Chinese mob in order to garner public support for the coming war continues apace with very successful results. I mean, once you are no longer able to compete effectively, the only remaining option is to attempt to undermine or destroy your geopolitical rival.

Here in Canada anti-Chinese sentiment is increasingly nasty. In fact, I heard a news report last year that the greater Vancouver area was the #1 region in North America for violent attacks against innocent persons that appear to be Chinese to their attackers, whether they actually are or not. 

I personally do not care whether or not my goods originate from China.

The western world kisses the ring of the leadership of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia where public beheadings of citizens and non-citizens alike for such "crimes" as infidelity or apostasy are a matter of routine, and holds holy and above reproach the nation of Israel which maintains brutal apartheid policies and, once caught in the act, reluctantly admitted to running a covert racist undertaking involving sterilizing Ethiopian Jewish women immigrants without either their knowledge or consent. No, that is not "fake news".

PS...

Super integrated amplifier: Canadian engineered, made in China
Speakers: British engineered, made in China
CD player: Danish engineered, made in China
Headphone amp: US engineered, made in USA, (except for external PSU made in China)
Powered subwoofers w/ room correction software: Canadian engineered, made in Canada
Streamer: Canadian engineered, made in China

The preponderance of Canadian content is strictly coincidental. I am an internationalist.

Wow, @vladtheimpala, any thoughts you would like to share on Russia as well?

Your show posts is based on a false premise,

"seething anti-Chinese mob"

I see nothing of the sort. I do see anti-China, which is much different. I don't see anyone hating on Taiwanese people and they are Chinese. Same with more in Singapore.

Vancouver, isn't that where the Canadian Government just recently said there was a concerted effort by foreign powers (China) to attack a federal election candidate, likely to the point of losing when they would have won?  Unfortunately, actions like that, as well as initial Covid coverup, and the massive racial shift in the makeup up the area based on the inflow of money (and people) from Hong Kong and China can lead to people lashing out at others via association as opposed to who they should be mad at, their government. Being forced out of an area after generations have built it up due to government allowed policies can make people angry. I am sure your government has taken total responsibility? (I am assuming you are Canadian). Feel quick to call me racist, but that issue is no different from uncontrolled gentrification which has hurt minority communities hard. Is that okay?  No more okay what "Americans" or "Canadians" buying up all best properties in a 3rd world country.

On the aspect of competition, is it possible for someone to live in Canada (or America) at the wage paid to the average worker in China? What about the overhead for employment standards, safety, environment? What about even overhead for what we consider reasonable infrastructure?   Level the playing field, and things become more competitive. Look at Japan now.
