Think of all the money that we as a nation of consumers saves on Chinese
goods, or should I say, former nation of consumers. I try not purchase made
in China goods, something about supporting a communist government that uses
the equivalent of slave labor to make the goods we buy. The desire to save
pennies on cheap, slave labor goods is the equivalent of slitting our own
throats. Then we have the manufacturers who claim that they manufacture in
China to keep costs down to the public, PURE BS. It's about profit, profit
margins and answering to shareholders, last time I checked products haven't
decreased by manufacturing in China, just bigger profit margins.
It hurts knowing that my money supports a communist regime that executes
those of faith, forcibly removes organs for transplant to the higest bidder
from political prisoners and has no problem executing someone for talking
about democracy or becoming a constitutional republic.
See what happens when I cant drive my Pantera, I dwell on things I cannot
change. LOL.
My gripe on my Piloti shoes is they dig into the area above my heels.
