Good Lord. Companies are all about more profits, and the consuming public is always about cheaper goods. It's both. The reason companies moved production to China is because it's too damn expensive to produce common items here. Bear in mind that we are very much a society in which most daily utilized goods are considered disposable.
I don't disagree, and would have liked your post if you would have written, "The reason companies moved production to China is because doing so widely increases profit margins," instead of, "The reason companies moved production to China is because it's too damn expensive to produce common items here."
