[QUOTE="RobGMN, post: 8884664, member: 683408"] The question is: why did we lose so many if we could simply just have done it better? Why didn't we just do it better? People complain that we helped other countries recover and then made them good enough to beat us. No, we helped them REBUILD, and then they made themselves better than us. Japan had Sony. We had Zenith for 20% cheaper. Sony won. Better. Korea had Daewoo. We had RCA for the same price. Daewoo won. Better. Japan had Datsun. We had AMC. Did you know the dashboard on your Ford was probably designed 5 years before it could be approved for the vehicle design and cannot be changed once production starts, but the Japanese can react and change a design in a month if they choose to? If we CAN do it better, we sure haven't made a show of it. [/QUOTE]
