Eisboch
My wife went out today to buy a new throw for our family room. She found
one she like but after she looked at the label she promptly put it
back.........."Made in China".
We have both made a commitment not to buy any goods made in China.
You are going to have to put that "within reason" in there. Many items
just are no longer made in the USA by anybody, only made in China.
Matches are one, I may have read shoelaces too, or something like that
and many of the electrical components that we depend on. But I am with
you. You will find many items like that, or parts without, essential
products would not be available. China could shut us down in 2 months,
all they would have to do is turn all their supply ships around, our
society and infrastructure would immediately be effected.. It is sad
but true.
Yup..we'd all be runnin' around naked if they cut us off.
