Why are things made in China, because they are cheap and we want cheap. It's one of the ways Walmart became so big.

Exactly, as long as Americans want cheap, China (and Walmart) will provide it.

I do have two sets of Craftsman open ends and box end that say Made in USA. One set, purchased in the early 90s, is still in its packaging.
