Amen Stan!

My wife and I do not buy things made in China, Taiwan, Mexico, etc. If
I need something, and it is only made there, I'll try to make my own
first or live without it. No, this is not easy but...

China et al has the USA by the balls and no one is willing to admit it.

If China stops making stuff imported to the US, what would  Wal-mart
do? They will have nothing on their shelves to sell. (Yeah, other
stores too, but Mal-Mart the evilest).

Just pisses me off thinking about it...   ...JMM
