Why people don't buy craftsman anymore

Growing up and being into cars, I started to buy Craftsman as it was really the only viable and affordable option....I won't buy them anymore.
When at one time I thought I wanted to be a full-time mechanic, id little by little replace my craftsman with Snap On
Luckily that never happened and so I still have my American made Craftsman sockets and wrenches some of which are over 50 years old. I also have some Proto
When I had my car down my daughters about a hundred mile drive, taking hand tools back and forth got old real fast and I bought some HF. I thought their ratchets were junk but the wrenches and sockets were ok for occasional use
I watched a few of those videos comparing Snap on to HF, convincing isn't it? Like most con games they are very convincing, hard to argue with what you see in front of you but id like to see into the future say after 40 years of turning wrenches just what holds up and what doesn't
Not to get on a soap box but when I grew up, buying any tool be it power or hand was a big investment. There wasn't a lot of options like there is today
In power generation we were supplied with hand tools, mostly Williams industrial and some Proto
Later on I saw some Bonney hand tools as well....Power house work is demanding and conditions are tough so good tools are a given. Failure of a tool can mean schedules are not kept so the company usually buys top shelf equipment at least thats what I remember from back in the day
