China makes quality things, they just keep it for themselves, and ship their crap to us.

That's hilarious. The most popular grocery stores in Shanghai right now are Costco and Sams, with lines everyday out the door, not Chinese grocery stores. Chinese citizens don't want to buy cancerous food products for example.

If you are willing to pay (and know where to look), you can get good quality from China just fine.

Most iPhones come from China after all.
