The saying "they don't make them like they used to" is due to planned obsolescence.
A purposefully implemented strategy by a manufacturer that ensures the current version of their product will become out-of-date or useless within a pre-planned time period. Achieved through cultivating desirability of new versions of the product over older versions.
This guarantees that zombie consumers will fall for the trick of frequently purchasing replacements, thus conflating artificial demand and the additional lining of corporate pockets while leveraging our children's future on margin by amplifying the raping the Earth’s resources.
Developing a trade, otherwise known as a skill, to fix complex or even simple machines will never become obsolete. Planned obsolescence itself will become obsolete.
