Just look for the label and don't be so eager to purchase. Shop around.

Here is a suggestion, buy from any country except China.

I've been on a decade long boycott of Chinese goods.

Get this. Went to purchase a new pair of boots. Went to Cavanders Western store, about 80% of all their cowboy boots are made in China.

So, couldn't help myself when the sales lady asked...”can I help you”. Yes, I answered. Do you have any boots made in America!

She got this stunned look on her face. She worked for Cavanders and didn't realize the boots were made in China.

Something as American as the Western boot, something as uniquely Texan....MADE IN CHINA. That pisses me off.

So, I went to facebook, friended Justin boot co. and Tony Lama boot co. and lodged my complaint for millions to see.

The response I received from their customer service reps were priceless. Major craw-fishing...before the masses.

I shopped around, found a pair of boots...Made in the good ol U S of A.

I think people are stuck in “Emperor’s New Clothes” mode.

We’ve seen a couple Republican candidates through the years try to warn us.

H. Perot Perot. Duncan Hunter. Donald Trump. All understood, and tried to tell us.

They were marginalized by those making billions of dollars off our destruction.

As long as those selling us out, succeed in keeping those voices on the sideline, most Republicans remain transfixed by their “free trade” programming, and will take the easy route and stay neutral.

Once someone manages to reach enough Americans to break the indoctrination, the dam will crumble. If America has enough time left... Unfortunately it doesn’t seem anyone is really willing to stand up and say he’s naked as a jaybird until then.

In the meantime the America we all grew up knowing, dissolves more every single day.

And nobody does anything to stop our slide.
