Happy Birthday America,'MADE IN CHINA'

[decoy409]

Heck,nothing wrong with celebrating our independence. Or is there?

This way US flags were handed out durring the parade with tags from the manufacturer reading,

'MADE IN CHINA'

Happy birthday america??

Coming on strong with actions as such?

[decoy409]

Ha,that's funny,who said anything about BUYING?

Only you,that's who.

These are given away by the parade marchers.

Go China!

Looks like freedom of choice....has been hit by some Impalers!

Since this thread is inflammatory to many Americans but does not violate any of our restrictions, there is no reason to take any action upon it. I am asking Decoy to provide a link or other confirmation for his statements.

"As for the Stars and Stripes, about 88% of our money for American flag imports billowed over to China in 2010. U.S. foreign trade statistics show that the U.S. imported $3.2 million worth of flags, and $2.8 million of that went to our top trade partner."

What happened to "looks like FREEDOM of choice"

The choice is not with the people,the choice is with a select few.

Hey, what do you know...The Chinese have a little freedom of choice too!
GO FORD!!!

Decoy, you have found a niche market. Buy a sewing machine and a few bolts of red white and blue fabric and start selling 100% made in America Flag (just make sure the cloth is made in the USA from USA cotton.)

Archie

Three 'SHORT' years back I was barking to bring the toothbrush back to U.S. made (as a small example).
But that did not seem to be a issue to some whether we made it or not.

Funny how time fly's hey Arch.

Why with the extra printed up fiat,why we can get more CHINA!

[domeasingold]

With a few more gold coins, you could buy more chinese.
