HECHO EN CHINA You Make the decision
When I write Hecho en China, it means "Made in China." Here's the scoop on the past few weeks in my life, just after very major surgery.
About one month ago my DISH TV system crapped out. The Dish repair person replaced everything but the receiver b/c we had thought we might be able to save the many fantastic music videos we acquired over many years. We were wrong and the videos couldn't be retrieved so we ordered and received by mail a brand new receiver. After installation, and every single aspect of the Dish system, and 100% of the technology were made to be brand new, it still did not work. Sooooo, yet another TV repair human came. Sure enough, the receiver (Hecho en Chino) was faulty.
Next, the car's battery went to techno-heaven so AAA put in a new battery. Next two separate ceiling fans went bad. After purchasing two new ceiling fans for our fabulous repair human Steve to install, he says.... "The most expensive one was factory defective." Can you guess where it was made? You got it. Hecho en China. Lucky for me, Steve was able to re-make and fix what was faulty in front of me with his specialty tools and ingenuity.
Does anyone remember when MADE IN AMERICA meant something good?
I do.....
