Or at the very least less common attachment because they grew up outside of a monoculture.

    I think that this is entirely dependent on the amount of money you’re willing to expend. I’m sure that you can buy things that are much better or at least as well built as their counterparts from the past.

        Oh I’m sure you can get one at some fancy furniture store. It will cost you about as much as half a year of food but in theory, you can get one.

          And there’s the rub. Back in the day, the general population could fairly easily afford things that lasted, mostly because everything was built to last. Now we have the things built to last that only the wealthy can afford, and most things are shit-made from China. I’m not trying to slight China, but their quality standards are absolute, bottom-of-the-barrel, shit. If they get their act together and make quality products that are affordable, I’ll change my review.
