What is offensive about your post is the suggestion that the US is somehow "not good at" production because we don't have the option to utterly disregard human rights and abuse the employer power to give people an "offer they can't refuse".
We all buy, indeed rely on being able to buy, this cheap stuff, so I didn't intend to single you out as evil for also doing so. One just has to remember we have such low prices now because humans somewhere far away are being treated inhumanely. It is unlikely that this will continue indefinitely.
