Today I took my truck to Sears for a free tire rotation,part of the deal for buying them there.While waiting I took a stroll thru the appliance department and saw a new to me brand Galaxy on refrigerators,stoves,washers,etc.The makers label read "made in china".I went from there to TSC to buy a couple of pairs of "Liberty" overalls,they didn't have any.The space they used to occupy was filled with "Schmidt"brand overalls.Label reads "made in china".I asked the girl at the cash register about it,she said they sent the Schmidts to them with instructions to send the Libertys back.I think we need to do a better job of electing people to public office.I'm aware that Liberty moved from Leeds,Alabama to Mexico several years ago,quality suffered and the price was still $28,now our major appliance makers are having to compete with prison labor.Corporate greed and lawmakers that care only about themselves are killing us.What are our grand children going to do for a living?Selling insurance and hamburgers to each other ain't going to work,they have to make something people need and will pay money for.We are getting whipped,if I buy a made in USA garment it is at a yard sale.China is in the automobile business starting the first of next year,tractors come from all over the whole round world.We are allowing this to happen to us,and are helping it along.Some things are just too stupid to do.
