If you are upset with the USA trade balance, as I am, then you may wish to check out some of the merchants on the Source URL.

It irks me when I see “Made in China” OR “HECHO EN MEXICO”.....

[Scythian]

Why is this post Vanity? You’re darn straight I’m tired of seeing that label ...

[mel]

Right now I am most concerned about the food stuff. Thanks so much for info

[sageb1]

All I have to do is walk through my house.

I can remember the same objection in the 50’s to made in Japan.

I'm just as fed up as the next guy, but try getting Joe Consumer to pay U.S. made prices on his next TV or DVD player purchase.

Lot of luck with that one.

If you are truly tired of “made in China” then you should never step foot inside of a Walmart store again. Same goes for MANY products sold at warehouse stores such as Costco and Sam’s club (relationship to Walmart noted).

STOP buying this crap and it will stop showing up everywhere. Pay for a quality American made or European made item and keep it. Buck the trend to be trendy.

Japan wasn’t feeding us poison and selling weapons to our enemies.

I spent a lot of time griping about “made in China” labels-to absolutely no avail.

My computer,printer,digital camera,and at least half my software wears that label now ; mainly because that’s just about all you CAN buy in certain product lines.

Is there a site for “Made in USA by workers in non-union shops”?

Otherwise, I’d only be trading the enemy without for the enemy within. Given that choice, I’d rather pay a lower price.

[cinives]

Why ? Joe Consumer happily pays for Toyota and Honda vehicles built in the good ole USA.

I’m going to boycott the stuff made in China. The downside is I won’t be able to shop in Wal-mart anymore, the upside is I’ll have all kinds of disposable income now because everything’s made in China.

Are you kidding, it's not just the huge stores. The Mom and Pop stores carry the same stuff.

I remember my grandmother refusing to buy anything made in China back in the late 60’s, early 70’s. I wish people had kept up that standard and many of the jobs we lost would still be here

[Gorzaloon]

OUR management people made the decisions to base their value added on slave labor, and to evade environmental regulations. So they pay a twentieth of the labor, the waste is dumped in rivers, their markups become astronomical, and the prices are STILL dirt cheap. It will be hard to wean consumers away from that, and harder still to wean stockholders away from the markups and sales volumes.

[cripplecreek]

Given that choice, I’d rather pay a lower price.

After all, the communists are only selling weapons that kill our soldiers. That's some real moral high ground. [/sarc]

My little 6 year old is just beginning to read and said, WHY DOES EVERYTHING SAY MADE IN CHINA?

[Mrs. Ranger]

The 50’s? Not hardly. ;)In the 50’s, “made in Japan” was relegated to a few things like cheap china found in the five and dime. Japan was *not* the major supplier of our food, clothing, appliances, automobiles, farm equipment, etc., etc. Yes, some of us can actually remember that far back. :)

You might be thinking of the 80’s?
