People who were alive in the 1980's know it was the Walton family of Walmart fame which demanded its suppliers begin to make things in China or be removed from Walmart stores. This was to increase Wal-Mart's profit margins. Walmart really started the commoditization of manufacturing American goods on China.

Sorry but you are wrong. There were numerous stories about this from manufacturers in the 1999's. Walmart told them manufacture in China or else

Walmart is not the entirety of goods stores worldwide. Just a tiny fraction in fact. Yet every nation lost manufacturing to China.

The reasons were economic and predictactable.
