This encounter happened with Ravi...I merely witnessed it.
Ved, while coloring his Lightning McQueen poster, suddenly lifted his head up,"Why is everyhting made in China, Daddy?"
Ravi, who was pored over his iPhone while sipping his coffee, was somewhat taken aback by such a profound question coming from Ved. "Why do you feel everything is made in China, Ved?", Ravi asked.
"Well, my pencil case says made in China and my sweat shirt says made in China and my school bag says made in China," Ved pondered.
Ravi thought about how to explain this complex business phenomenon involving costs and profits to Ved. He started off with a basic explanation, "Maybe China is just good at making things for the world".
Ved was confused...."But Daddy, I thought, Trenton makes, the world takes"
Now it all made sense. The profound question that Ved had asked was really triggered by a BIG sign across the bridge over the Delaware river displaying the glory manufacturing days of Trenton, when indeed Trenton made and the world took!
