Yes. They also have hammers.
What we have here is failure to communicate.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams

Not always - sometimes they make do with rocks or a big chuck of scrap metal. My employer found that out after sending an engineer to one of the "low cost" suppliers a nitwit purchasing agent chose to make some mold parts to spec. An order had been placed with a good supplier called out by the production engineer, but the purchasing agent found he could save a little money by using a different supplier and changed the order without telling anyone.  :facepalm:  BIG EXPENSIVE MISTAKE!
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

Bean counters and pencil pushers. Most of them wouldn't know quality if it jumped up and bit them on the ass.
