97% of Americans cannot afford a ghetto 800k home in a big city. This means 97% of Americans dont have a high standard of living so all they can afford are cheap junk products. 10% of Americans make up 50% of the consumption. Without theβm cheap chinese junk, americans wouldnt be able to purchase anything.

Its that simple. Its why the US imports anyone and everyone and we are the bestest.
