I get that. There was a time when "made in Japan" meant low quality also. Times are a changin'.

Japan buying up all of USA debt and land was a scary Boogeyman.

I think I remember Saudi Arabia doing it too.

Then China.

I wonder if the American empire will last long enough for another country to do it.
