Don’t we make anything in America, anymore?
uh huh...
Traitors
Any increased supervision of any other products?
[crickets]
Are we so desperate to make a freaking buck that we get our drugs from China?
From article...”Much of Chinas production of raw heparin begins in homes and tiny factories, where teams of three to five people transform pig intestines into a dry substance that is eventually sold to major pharmaceutical companies.”
Mmmm, seems like a safe process. /sarc
But remember, cheap pharmaceutical imports from Canada are “too dangerous”.
The question might also be...is there a Dept. in our gov.that actually does its job?? I honestly can’t think of one that doesn’t do a screw up job...whether with our borders, our food supplies, our financial dealings,...you obviously have to come to the conclusion that the welfare of the American Citizens are at the bottom of this gov. list of priorities.
May the good Lord help us if we are relying on this gov. for our safety.

“We” never have. Only genius industrialists have made things in America. And liberals\socialists have burdened companies in the U.s. with so many roadblocks, environmental laws, lawsuits, government regulations (OSHA), EPA ,taxes etc that companies can’t in the U.S. can’t compete with companies in other countries.
So soon nobody will make anything I the U.S. anymore.
I don’t understand why so many people say “We”. I’m an individualist and I don’t look to the government or “we” or anyone to solve my problems for me . I solve my own problems.
“We” seems to be the opposite of what I believe in. It seems to be a community,collectivism, socialism, liberalism or whatever name you want to give collectivism/Marxism.
I believe in individual rights, individual liberty, individuality,capitalism , limited government, deporting illegals , strong military , and most of all private property and business freedom.

Well I am an individual too but I haven’t given up on America yet...as in “we the people.....”

Finally a post on this thread that I agree with . I can't believe so many put their faith in unaccountable, evil, corrupt , incompetent government idiots for our safety and food safety and to do a better job at quality control than the free market. Incredible.
What does “We” have to do with me .Or what do you have to do with me?
I don’ t look to the government or “we the people” to solve my problems for me . I solve my own problems.
when has government done anything right. 3 trillion dollars per year federal annual budget and what do they produce for those 3 trillions. Do they stop crime, do they protect the borders, do they stop drugs? for that 3 trillion dollars per year they produce global warming studies and give many grants for ridiculous studies and to “non-profits” that “help the community(LOL).” yeah help themselves to free money . the government produces nothing for that 3 trillion except the military which is one of the 3 legitimate functions of government.
We may not like it but we must depend on our government to do their job. If you are a diabetic how are you going to get insulin? Are you capable of making it yourself? Are you trained and do you have the equipment needed to test your vial? We can and should hold our government’s feet to the fire but it’s not an either or situation.
The love of money is the root of all evil. I bought a box of Johnson & Johnson (not some weird dollar store brand) "sterile" gauze pads. Made in freaking China. Are they really sterile? Yeah, on a wound why should it matter, huh? Arrrg.
