So? Most parts are made in other areas because labour is cheaper, and then just the main parts assembled here in the US.

Outside of China being Communist, I don't see what's so surprising about it....

In China, factory labor is 60 cents per hour.

Yeah, tons of parts are made in China, because it's cheaper, and they want to make the most money that they can make.
