As a ship's chief engineer I ran to Asia from the west coast for many years (30+). In the 60's it was true that the Chinese people made very poor wages but not so any more. It was also true that many of the products were marginal. In the years before I retired, my company shipyarded their vessels in China. Their steel work and production was first rate and fast; much faster than in the US. BUT to be fair, the US yards were full of military vessels. Remember also that the cost of living in China is very much lower than here and their living and social structure are much different. Apples to oranges...
