Recently I needed a pair of work gloves. Whenever I buy anything, I look carefully at the label and have not bought Chinese in 15 years.

Although the gloves which were made in America cost $6 more than a comparable Chinese version, I happily paid the extra money rather than finance those scalawags, the Chicoms.

The Chinese are a great people and deserve a decent government. It will happen when the next generation takes power. China has always been one generation behing the Russians.

I already do and let me tell ya...the hardest part was buying new running shoes the other day. I have been looking for a new pair for months and finally found a pair of NEW BALANCE that are MADE IN THE USA!!! I had to pay more, but it was worth it. Plus, I got to explain to all the Foot Locker, Athletes Foot & other shoe store employees just why I couldn't buy "Made in China" shoes. One emploee even told me that a few other customers had mentioned similar buying practices.

If enough people boycott & make it known to shop owners/workers why....it could have an impact.
