unfortunately there's a reason why the west has deindustrialized. because their products are simultaneously SHIT quality and overpriced (sometimes, extremely overpriced). Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and China produce everything you want in terms of industrial products.
>>107031834based, fuck euros
it's all made in china, though
>>107031825Chinese/Korean Tech>cheap>it just works>lasts for agesthis is a lie they simply offer what Europeans offer for cheaper, at worse or same quality.
>>107031825Except for 3d printers.Prusas are expensive but at least they don't lock you out and refuse to let you see logs or demand you contact support to "activate" a part
>>107031825>buy korean or chinkium appliance>replace a part>refuses to work unless support activates it>all while support non-subtly suggests only poorfags don't just buy a new productnever again.
>>107031825Western living patterns are suboptimal, and produces negative externalities that make their way into the manufacturing base, expressed as higher costs. It is simply not possible for someone in the US to make a device at a lower cost than someone in Japan, for the same level of quality. Japanese can handle lower wages and higher standard of living. In the US wages need to be astronomical because living expenses are so high. Externalities that hamper US manufacturing:-Higher healthcare insurance costs from privatized inefficient insurance. -Higher healthcare costs from unhealthy foods and lifestyles-higher labor transportation expenses from their requirement to own a car, and be insured (insurance charges you more to offset uninsured drivers)-higher housing costs from suburban sprawl (feedback loop with transport costs) and excess low quality manual labor (illegals) -higher housing manufacturing costs from boom/bust construction cycles, where construction season instability leads to risks and volatility baked into the cost of building the house. In japan they constantly rebuild houses, its a steady industry.-as housing is a steady industry, it can draw skilled labor as opposed to bottom of the barrel laborI could go on and on. Tons of things like this. The US simply cannot compete in manufacturing with other nations, because their system of living is too inefficient and expensive.

So when we replaced it we had to do some cabinet fuckery.

>>107032797>Higher healthcare insurance costs from privatized inefficient insuranceChinks have private insurance. The only difference is they leave you to die in the street if you don't have money. You're not subsidizing every crackhead going to the emergency room for a cold.>Higher healthcare costs from unhealthy foods and lifestylesNigger they cook with literal shit oil and smoke 3 packs a day.

>>107031825We in bizarro world where the appliances I have from the West don't work decades later and the cheap Chinese shit i bought didn't break in a year?
>>107033444Because you bought Speed Queen instead of Electrolux

>>107031825Bosch dishwashers are more reliable than LG's, and Samsung makes some of the least reliable dishwashers in the market THOUGH
>>107031825I would never use a Xiaomi phone, even if they'd pay me to do it.
>>107031825>Chinese>Just worksPick one.
>>107033780>even if they'd pay me to do it.I'll pay you $100k to buy and use a Xiaomi phone for a year. if you don't use it for a whole year, you will have to return the phone and the $100k. deal?
>>107032797>Western living patterns are suboptimal, and produces negative externalities that make their way into the manufacturing base, expressed as higher costs.Choke on my fuck, wumao.
>>107031825I'd rather pay a $50 monthly subscription on a $500 American/European dishwasher than a Chinese $100 one-time-purchase dishwasher that might send my dishwashing habit data back to Beijing.
>>107034103what will beijing do against you with that data? they can't put taxes on you for consuming too much like your local gov can

>>107034707>Badly I own two homes, one of which I'm renting out. Why do you care so much about how we live when I couldn't give a single fuck about you?
>>107035340yuro propaganda tells them they have a higher standard of living but can't square it with the fact they'll never own a house
>>107033772Yeah my experience with LG and Samshit is they're just really aggressive about bribing reviewers and juicing stats and the traditional American or Japanese brands are generally better irl.
>>107031825Specifically for home appliances nothing really tops euro brands still in therms of reliability and actually doing their job well. In my experience american and turkish brands like Beko are by far the worst while chinese are a hit and miss.
>>107035368As someone who has lived both in the us and yuroland, I can tell you're brainwashed by 4chan memes and have a very skewed and broken perception of how europeans actually live. Vast majority of americans barely have it any better than east euros. Also it's hilarious that you believe they don't own houses
>>107035617How much did you engage with the bottom 50% of the population while you were there? German home ownership is roughly 20% lower per capita than America. Could it be your view is skewed by only being exposed to the 47% of euros who can afford houses? That certainly squares with all these gremlins who can't afford to run incandescent lightbulbs and keep seething about stick houses for no reason.
>>107035340Keep trying honey you'll manage to convince yourself soon enough
