Cant we even make a baseball cap in this country anymore? Went to buy a MIA and Vietnam Vet cap and the damn thing is made in China! S--t like that just makes my blood boil. Lost friends and buddies over there and then I'm supposed to support the bastards by buying there goods. Arrrrrgh!!!

most people will not pay the premium for "Made in USA" products compared to the less expensive imports.
Im not convinced..... I was at costco a few days back and was looking from where the clothes were made. The least expensive pair of pants I found were made in the usa. Good quality too.
I would pay the extra price anyway if I could just find it made in america. It too many times just doesn't exist.
I went to the POST EXCHANGE at FORT LEWIS Washington a while back. There was a cart vender in the entrance selling hats.
I picked out one which said Vietnam Vet and went to pay for it. Then I noticed the inside tag said
"MADE IN VIETNAM".
Talk about Venting. I gave a piece of my Vietnam Vet mind to the guy running the cart and then stopped at the Installation Seargent Major's office and gave him a piece of my retired Vietnam Vet's mind also.
I felt better after the double rant !!
P.S. I told the vender what he should do with his hat.

You yelled at a 1st shirt !? I still get chills even thinking about that old grizzley,hard boiled,mean SOB...LOL
I've stopped buying "made in China" wherever possible. It's all I can do.
It's our gov'ts fault as much as it is ours. With as much of a trade deficit we have with China, you'd think it would time to raise tarriff's and put our foot down on their imports, but our gov't is just puppets for the perveyors of Chinese crap so they don't do anything.
Some company tries to make hats in the USA, their workers will join a hat makers union, the EPA and OSHA will come in and make sure they have to spend billions on railing protecting equipment guards protecting more guards protecting a shield on a sewing machine, and require the company to tripple treat their own wastewater from washing the hats before it goes into the sewer....and pretty soon you have a $50 hat made in the USA.
