I tend to go nuts when reading Wal-Mart threads. So much of what I buy is from Taiwan or China because there is no other place to obtain the stuff. My house is filled with American made 'Amish' furniture, though. It will outlive me and I hope the grandkids appreciate what 'craftsmanship' means. Yes, it costs more, but only because it is worth it.
Actually I think the Amish made products are very reasonably priced and wonderful quality. Here we have Menonites who make furniture and such. We bought a storage building from them. Very well made and reasonably priced. My next door neighbor bought a gazebo from them. They are really great people.
