Don't get me wrong. I love this country but consider US made quality to be
a sad joke.

I remember in the late 80's when Craftsman in Canada was quality made with
pride in Japan, while Crapsman in the US was US made. I sure wish I had
bought some, but I was a poor college student.

I understand that the Craftsman stuff sold here in Canada is Chinese
stuff, while in the US it's American-made. I can't find any decent
Craftsman stuff in any Sears store here, but friends visiting the
States have brought back Craftsman that's obviously much better
quality.
