Sadly very true Mr K

Why bother with all the costs of manufacturing when you can buy what you need, at a fraction of the price, from somewhere else?

Does it really matter that in doing so you are actively promoting, and party to, some dubious work ethic practices in foreign climes, many of which don't have to operate under some of the strict laws that other countries have to?

We became a 'service industry' nation, which was fine and dandy until the rot set in.
