From your comments, i really doubt either of you have seen enough dubs to be able to judge what is good and bad.
The voice acting industry is much more prominent in Japan, so it will obviously attract more talented people and produce quality product more often.

To say that all English voice actors are bad stinks of so much weeaboo, it makes me wants to vomit. Are you guys also going to go piss on Mel Blanc grave after this?

American cartoon in general mostly all have good voice acting, because cartoon is a prominent business over here. Anime is more of an afterthought so it doesn't attract the talent.

Just compare shows like Avatar or any comic book animation to most attempt at anime dubbing and you'll see what i'm talking about.

There are still many good example of dubbing in anime despite all that.

Cowboy Beebop, Baccano, Samurai Champloo, Trigun, FMA and Death Note just to name a few.
Unfortunately The US has taken it upon themselves to dub every god damn game I've ever bought since childhood (of course when I was a kid VA wasn't an issue in games since no one talked out loud to begin with). So yes, I consider myself after playing over 200 games and watching over 200 anime shows to be pretty damn informed. Even watched Skyrim trailers in Japanese and OH MY GOd they were sooo awesome.

I say this regarding dubs. The US people have NO IDEA how to convey feelings and settings created by Japanese people. So whenever they open their mouth they either sounds exaggerated or it doesn't convey any feelings at all. I'll be damned if they destroy another FF or Tales game for me.

Actually most American cartoons stink, with the exception of Spider-Man from the 90's. But they figured out a way of destroying him too with the new series which makes him look like a moron and act even worse.

Voice acting from the west can be good, but almost only when the game/cartoon is created by US people to begin with. And games have good voice acting because they hire famous people who have acted in countless movies.

So speaking purely from experience, it does seem I have a lot more experience than you do. Anime dubs is a NO. Game dubbing is a NO. They can make their own cartoons, but I will never watch them cause they are crap to begin with.
