Default What's wrong with this picture?



These were given out to folks here at Ft. Campbell during the "Week of the Eagles" concert weekend.

Sad, but fitting how it effectively paraphrases the whole US/China economy relationship.

The good news is that manufacturing is coming back here. With rising fuel costs the marginal difference is becoming less and less. Add in horrible quality control and factories that try to screw you left and right, and we have the perfect recipe for increased manufacturing in the states.

I can't get motors or batteries made in the states yet, but you can bet that my motor controllers will be built here.

You can get Made in USA flags!!!!!!........I have one hanging outside my house right now. You just have to look!!!!!

Shopping at Wal-Mart is your first problem.....almost everything sold there is Made in China.

That is both funny and sad at the same time. Also not suprising at all.

You would think that if there was one thing we could keep sacred, it would be our flag.

I gotta go with Slave on this one...FAIL on the capitolism.
