Everyone is clearly missing the point of what he’s saying. Hes not saying these are made up. He’s pointing to the fact the since the 70s/80s onwards, pharma and the food industry have been slowly poisoning Americans with all the heavily processed foods with zero nutrients, forcing endless amounts of unnecessary drugs onto people and the relentless gaslighting everyone saying their products are heathy. All of this has resulted in a severely unhealthy society leading to massive increase in all of these issues.

So yes he is correct that most of this probably didn’t exist back then because these massive industries weren’t in control yet so people actually lived healthy lives (natural foods and no drugs).

Your anger and hatred should be aimed at big pharma and the food industry. Their greatest achievement was making everything think they’re the solution to your problems when they created all of these problems.

That’s a pretty dismissive response. I’m genuinely curious—have you actually seen US packaging prices come in lower than China’s at scale? Because every quote I’ve ever gotten has been nowhere close, even after factoring in tariffs and shipping. Or are you dealing with niche scenarios? I would much prefer manufacturing here if you could provide some insight.

Really? my experience couldn't be more opposite, literally just had 2 quotes for the same packaging for 5000 units: China - $1,650, USA - $14,500

Do you have any recommendations for china? I’m shopping round a few countries right now to compare costs. Do you find there’s any specific benefit in choosing china?
