John Kuthe... Five year old Chinese girls girls have to eat too man. I would say get whatever suits your needs best and will provide the most enjoyment for you. Regardless of where it was made. Yeah, go ahead! And when they outsource YOUR JOB overseas, then mayne you'll care! No raindrop ever believes it's responsible for the flood! John Kuthe...- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - What type of computer you working on, John? And what type of car do you drive? Have you checked the labels in your clothes lately? I know, it's depressing. I bought a vacuum bottle (NOT a Thermos(R) ) a vew months ago. A Stanley vacuum bottle. Good old fashioned Stanely, a good American company, correct? Bottle has a label proudly stating "Since 1909". I flip it over and there's a sticker on the bottom "Made in China" In this day and age, the global economy dictates that pretty much everything is outsourced to the cheapest supplier. I'd rather spend more, buy less, and keep my fellow United Statesian employed than sent 200+ TRILLION $$$ to China every year! But experts say we have nothing to fear from the growing Chinese presence, as their well- being depends on our well-being. Uh, yeah? And exactly how many of these "experts" have had *their* jobs exported to China? For now, at least. For now, IOW in our lifetimes, and screw our descendents!! We want our crap NOW! Is that the kind of world you want to leave for your children, grandchildren, and on and on and on...? John Kuthe... |
