Not to offend, but what may be B.S. to some may be gospel to others. Everyone has an opinion. No need to go into details, just watch the documentary " Wal-mart- the high cost of living" and draw your own opinion. Pretty detailed in how business is conducted, and even dabbles in where reported Wal-mart charitable contributions come from. Approx. 2hrs in length.
And agreed, in todays world it is difficult to by anything not overseas, I just try my absolute best to always buy American, and if the product can't be found with a "Made in the USA" sticker, either regretably purchase or do without.
It is time I get off this garage sale bought old computer, call the folks on that damned old push button desk phone( the rotary dial can't be used anymore), drive that 20+ year old pick-up down to the garage and continue to work on my replacement vehicle, a 58' chevy truck on a 78' blazer chassis, complete with the fresh .030 over 283 cu.in motor. ( I wonder where my vehicles were made?):
