I want to buy a two-person inflatable kayak and was keen on the
Sevylor Colorado or Stearns Back Country which are about the same
price, but I've just found a Sea-Doo IK at Costco which is much
cheaper and includes paddles. It's not mentioned anywhere on the
Costco web site and I know no-one who has one. The IK will be used in
sheltered bays and shorelines, canals and local lakes - no rivers or
white water. Can anyone advise on the best option please?

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?

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?

In this day and age, the global economy dictates that pretty much
everything is outsourced to the cheapest supplier. But experts say we
have nothing to fear from the growing Chinese presence, as their well-
being depends on our well-being.

For now, at least.

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

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...?

This could be a troll, for instance by Costco marketing shills,
but in case not, here are two web pages Kooky45 should read:
