The sad part is industry has turned to corporate accountants instead of advice from engineers or end users. The accountants pinching pennies has had more to do with trade defecits than we want to admit. Number crunching makes for severe up and downs for industries here. They know the product won't last but push it anyway full price as if it was made here. When it fails they come back but only for a short time to fix the problem.
