We never knowingly buy anything made in China. If you can’t find it made in USA new, go to ebay and buy it made in USA 50 years ago, it’s still better than new from China.

Or in your internet search engine, enter “made in USA.” There are sites that will tell you where to find American products.

Which is what I have been promoting on FR since 2001.

Like my father used to say “buy cheap, get cheap”

I have New Balance MADE IN USA shoes for five or six years
Levis for 10 or 20 years, all kinds of items MADE IN USA that have held up nicely... I have a RCA 24" MADE IN USA TV I purchased in 1979 that STILL WORKS...I purchased an HD TV that I didn't realize until I got it home that was MADE IN CHINA that had a defective picture after 18 months...I'm just glad I purchased the extended warranty and they told me to send it back because it would cost more to fix it than what it is worth to replace it!!!!

I just wish the American automobile mfgs. had done a better job of marketing their vehicles over the past 20 years...it's not like there haven't been some MADE IN USA vehicles there are just as good as anything built overseas!!!
Heck, I have a JEEP that I purchased new in 89 with over 200K miles on it now that still runs like new and still gets 20MPG!...

Did you know that WalMart has more "Made in USA" products than any other retailer in the United States. Fact!

Did you know that EVERY store in America sells stuff from China, or uses it! Also a fact. Look around you.

Hate to rain on your party. It ain't WalMart, nor China, that is the problem. I have bought German pumps that were crap. I have gotten sick from Mexican greens.

I, too, blame unions for their greed, more than anything! Combine that with the industrial help TO OUR ENEMIES of the Marshall Plan, and we shot ourselves in the foot.
