The reason I am so sensitive about chew & spit is that for 30 years I remanufactured alternators and when I was finished with one, it performed like brand new and had superior bearings, brushes, and electronic components. Not in the league of velcro and wingnut junk that had stickers "Warranty Void If Battery Not Fully Recharged Before Use"
I am damned near ready to start pushing for a constitutional amendment that would forbid the importation or domestic manufacture of electrical and electronic components that prohibited the repair or remanufacture.
It does not mean settling for thrift store grade products. Housings, mechanicals, circuit boards can be modulized. Refurbished to look and work like new.
This would create an enormous amount of jobs well above "Burger Flipper" levels. Transformers, circuit boards, all domestically produced and it would salvage the 99% still-good waste of components.
