The twenty-first century did not invent cheap goods of dubious quality.
- immibis 2y agoThat's correct. It invented expensive goods of dubious quality. If you want a cheap good and you buy a cheap good and it's cheap, that's all fine. More power to you. Problems come when the quality level you want is possible to manufacture, even profitably, but isn't manufactured because market said no.
- FeepingCreature 2y agoI think you underestimate how expensive goods of good quality used to be. I have no good source for that though; just an impression that things used to be pricier.
