america best manufactorar

Agreed with Fjelstad. It is designed in the U.S., but it is manufactured in foreign countries.

 

An example is the company ''Apple.''

 

If you look at the description in the box it comes in, there's a paper that says ''Designed by Apple in US'' but Manufactured in China.

 

P.S: Apple products suck. I don't lik'em. . .

Clearly a person who does not much about the world around him

+1 Im out of positive votes.

 


 

1. Work on your english.

 

2.

 

Sir, most things the American people consume is foreign made. The technology for the latest tech may have been developed in the US, but the large majority of it is manufactured elsewhere.

In fact I think a large part (if not the majority) of the working force behind the development of many consumer products (mainly electronic technology) is foreign as well.

Actually...

 

"The United States is the world's largest manufacturer, with a 2010 industrial output of approximately $1,696.7 billion. In 2008, its manufacturing output was greater than that of the manufacturing output of China, India, and Brazil combined, despite manufacturing being a very small portion of the entire U.S economy, as compared to most other countries."

 

And most of this manufacturing is high-cost engineering, so here, the OP is wrong - most the 'latest electronics' will come from China.

 

However, I actually think the OP has a point; though manufacturing is a small part of America's economy, it's still (surprisingly to some) the world's largest manufacturing country.

 

"So why do so many Americans think the U.S. doesn’t make anything anymore? Part of the reason is that we’re deceived by what we see everyday. Shopping through your local Target, you’re going to see a lot of “Made in China” labels on things like clothing or electronics. The U.S. tends to make stuff that requires more technology and engineering know-how, like planes, semiconductors and machinery. Basic economics tells us that is exactly how things should be. Since China has so many, low-wage laborers, there is no way high-wage America can possibly compete in products that require teams of workers to manufacture, like toys, apparel, consumer electronics, and a lot of other stuff you’ll find on Wal-Mart shelves. Making such products in the U.S. would simply be too expensive; companies that did so would not be able to compete with cheaper imports made in lower-cost economies. But the U.S. still is very competitive in the types of products that demand a high level of technology, engineering and capital to produce. In such industries, wages don’t matter quite as much, and the U.S. can capitalize on its clear advantage over emerging markets like China in expertise, technology and innovation. That’s why the U.S. sells Boeing aircraft to China, and the Chinese sell blue jeans to Americans."

 

Though China takes part in a load of low-cost manufacturing, that particular type of manufacturing is a lot less valuable in general.

 

Bit of an Economics lesson for you all - the OP's post seems to hold some truth :P

sorry best is a term that is not stable if you mean the country with biggest GDP that is America which just means people spend more there, this does not infer that the products they build are of any quality, even a child can manufacture but the quality will probably be poor.

best should probably not be used in this generic way

The way i see it is that America is largest manufacturer in military,food chains and pornography.
Beside that i believe American movies and tv series are the best.
We need to give the credit where it is due.

DidYouKnowThat - try using Windows 8 on a desktop/laptop. Then use OS X. The better product will be obvious  ;) . However, Apple does overcharge its customers.

K listen

 

APPLE sucks ..
