If we are honest with ourselves we would know it was us the consumer and factory worker and not the business owners that caused this problem in the first place.
As a consumer we switched from buying a good product and having it fixed when it broke to buying throw away products for a cheaper price.
As a factory worker we demanded higher pay and better benefits to where we outpriced ourselves in the world market.
I can remember as a child we had the same TV and refrigerator for years and years. We made due and had it fixed if it broke.
Today people buy a new TV and refrigerator just because it is a newer model or bigger than the one we have even though the old one works just fine because we have money to burn with our high pay rate.
To compete and stay in business a business has little choice but to go where labor rates are low and to build a throw away product. Subsidized shipping by our government from China to the USA probably sped this process along when it first started.
