There was a time in this Nation's history when we could produce quality goods in any desired quantities, and we had the logistics to get them to global markets.
That time has passed, and due mostly to the "woke" banks, all subservient to the Communist Chinese, our industries produce quality goods only in small amounts, usually only for local distribution.
Here are two examples from MY house: Example one: I usually buy Vanity Fair brand paper table napkins. Last week, while marketing, I noticed some in HIGHLY similar packaging, picked up the two different brands and selected the "Everyday" brand, it was a dollar cheaper for the same 200-count package. I get them home and load the napkin holder on my table. The new napkins are useful only as four-folded. Doubled, they don't work, they tear when wiping the mouth.
Example two: Activia Yogurt: I've used it for years, it keeps the gut-flora on an even keel. I still use it, but I will probably change now, since the makers ultra-cheapened the packaging. The company which used to make it, Dannon, is now called "Danone US" Here's the Wiki. The serving size is the same, 113 grams, but it's now packaged in a cheaper plastic tub which cracks open easily, and the foil top of the tub can't be removed in one piece to access the contents, it is very light material now, shreds as it's being removed. The contents seem to be the same as before the package-cheapening.
Okay, a third example. Passenger cars. There is so much plastic in the bodies of them now that a minor under-hood fire, which previously could be extinguished with a small dry-powder extinguisher, now requires a fire company, and if one isn't almost on top of you when your car catches fire, your car is only a pavement scorch 5 minutes later. The auto manufacturers will tell us they have to use the flammable plastic now, it's the only way to get the weight down enough that the smaller motors can propel the cars like we want them to. I conclude that the so-called "CAFE-standards" are killing cars and some people. Those folks are dying because of a myth, that higher gas mileage in cars will save the planet from a horrible (un-specified) fate. Of course, there are those Elites (spit!) who don't want us to drive at all...
