Every coffee cup in my house is made in China, even the Charlie Brown one, except for the Royal Dalton cup I got from a girl whose father made them in England. My new toaster-over (DeLonghi, Italian-designed) and radio are made in China. I looked for American-made and couldn’t find any.
I want an air purifier and even Honeywell is made in Red China (Holmes), etc.
Star War action figures are made in Red China. Used to be made in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Tools - mainly made in China except Stanley and Estwing?
I’ll pay more for American-made because I want to support our workers and our country.
Enough Red China junk. Give me the good stuff and I’ll pay for it.
We can compete with anyone in the world but we need to get government off the backs of entrepreneurs. Reducing regulations and cutting business taxes would be a good first step. Slashing federal spending and tax cuts for everyone too. We may not make the same old stuff but the private sector unleashed will find numerous ways to create wealth.
