I would agree...the problem seems to be the lack of retrieving damages
from the manufacturers and importers of the bad sheetrock.


Nonsense. The homeowners need to go after the *builders* who used low-quality
materials.


So, if your brand new car burst into flame you'd sue the dealer?


Of course not. I'd sue the manufacturer of the car. Just like the owners of
the homes with Chinese drywall need to do: sue the manufacturer of the home.

Replying to nonsense with nonsense doesn't make sense.


Your analogy is, to put it charitably, severely flawed.

Hint #1: Who is the manufacturer of a house?
Hint #2: It's not the company that made the drywall, or the forester that
grew the trees that the framing was milled from.


Your understanding of how the legal system works is severely flawed,
which is why you didn't understand my analogy.

Rule one is to go after the guys with the deepest pockets. The
builder isn't it.
