I am nearly positive you are confusing Japanese with Chinese. Japanese are known for their own awesome engineering that is far superior to American engineering. Chinese on the other hand do not observe copyright laws, and their idea of "R&D" is "Recover and Duplicate". One of my biggest pet peeves is when people confuse Chinese and Japanese goods. It blows my mind. Chinese goods = cheap crap 1/4 the price of American goods. Japanese goods = super high quality. Remember the names Honda and Toyota - Americans have been trying to duplicate their manufacturing processes for 50 years now. Chinese are known for their terrible quality and copyright infringements.
Unions is a discussion for another time - but I am so anti-union it would make your head spin. Unions have ruined so much - and no, not just manufacturing. Answer me this question (and by the way, I've asked several teachers this) - why do teachers need a union? And did I recently hear that NFL players are in a Union too? They need a union because???????????
