Comments from a taxi driver about China manufactured products

We were in Las Vegas for a trade show, and we were in just another cab so we thought. When we told our boisterous cab driver we help businesses in NA get products manufactured in factories in China so that they can be cost competitive like Wal-Mart, he said keep those products coming from China because he likes those Wal-Mart type low prices. He told of us a brand name folding bicycle that he purchased 7 years ago for $499.00. He said the quality was not good and had quite a few problems. He eventually sold it along with his RV. Well he missed the convenience of his old folding bicycle so he bought a new one made in China only cost $199.00. He said the new one is better than the one he had before. He is so happy with the quality of everything he buys that is made in China that when we were getting out of his taxi he said “keep those low priced goods coming from China…I love ‘em.”
