Where were they manufactured? I'll bet CostCo's were made in China.


It's not only Walmart who's sending U.S. manufacturing jobs over to
China!

Do you like the U.S. trade IMbalance with China today?

Shop your conscience, not your wallet!

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!

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...?
