Actually, an American named W. Edwards Deming built the Japanese up after WWII. Deming had a manufacturing philosophy of statistical monitoring and incremental improvements that the big American companies shunned, but the Japanese embraced wholeheartedly. Looks like he was right.

That was a very different world. American hard goods mfg industry was at its peak of productivity. We also financed rebuilding of Europe, for the benefit of both the Europeans and ourselves.

Dang! I wasn’t alive yet for 1 and 2.

Then I go and miss 3 through 11! I must have been sleeping or on vacation or something.
