In terms of producing what are effectively cheap electronic consumer goods? That hasn’t been our thing for a while now.

That's fair. Can't seem to build big things either. Or maintain what we have. High speed rail. Roads and Bridges. Basically all infrastructure. And of course the major issues that hold back the entire society. Cost of education, healthcare, housing, transportation. These are all reasons for my statement that we can't get our shit together. Aside from not being able to efficiently build cheap electronic consumer goods.
