Tens of thousands sick, dead and suffering Americans, shutdowns in every direction, tens of thousands of bankrupt businesses, hundreds of thousands of lost jobs, millions of lost opportunities and all this cost America trillions?
Yet our stores and woke companies are still peddling all these Communist Chinese products?
Sometimes I fell like I'm the only one who finds all this extremely disturbing. Everywhere I look I still see, "Made in China".
How much did you pay?
I'm certain there are optics made in America that the military uses. They likely cost several thousand dollars and the military buys countless numbers and throws them away when they break.
I remember when color TVs were made in America. A color TV was a significant family investment that cost 2-3 months wages for an average middle-class household.
A Chinese-made 65" 4k TV today might cost a week's wages and by the time it breaks, it's already obsolete.
So the general consensus seems to be it’s, profits regardless of consequences, and if these corporations can’t peddle cheap Communist goods, they’ll go bankrupt!
Amazing.
I don’t know if it’s a general consensus, but that sentiment is out there.
I still check for the “Made In” label. I also do research to find where something is made when shopping online.
Yes and yes.
You have to really go out of your way to avoid buying Communist Chinese stuff. I do and it’s not easy. Sometimes I pay a couple more bucks to avoid supporting our enemy, which has caused so much grief in the U.S. Or I’ll just do without it.
