If it does, it's gonna take a long time to get here I'm afraid. Apple is looking at moving some production out of China and to Indonesia.

Moving out of China is good, and I guess it's gonna take baby steps to wean Americans off of some of the overpriced, cheap junk, as well as the cheap priced junk they've become accustomed to.

It's high time we quit funding military machines that are used to threaten us. **** them and the horse they rode in on.

I assume you mean other than all the T-notes they own. We've been digging our own hole for a while now. We've got quite a climb ahead to get back out of it.

Might as well. Our economy took it in the shorts already. Let's make this the opportunity for my kids to thrive in a robust economy.

It might screw Walmart in the process. Boo hoo.

I’d be surprised to find a Made in USA these days, unfortunately.

It’s about time to turn it around.

My wife just bought 6 new salad bowls that say "Made in the U.S.A."

Yeah, that sounds like a small effort, but she was determined to find them "Made in the U.S.A." or she wasn't going to buy.

It took her about 15 minutes on the inter-webs and voila' she found them!

Yeah, they were a little pricey, but they're also high quality.

Not chinese crap.............

Believe it or not, this can opener is legit
It’s geared way down so it’s super easy to turn.

Been using my dad's P38 I found. Takes a little practice, but works great for the amount of cans I open.

What have you been surprised by learning it was manufactured in China?

My wife has an expensive Coach purse that I was surprised to see was made in China. It's high quality leather and well made, but damn... it should have cost 1/5th what it did considering the origin.

I remember when "made in Japan" was not desirable.
Before Honda, it was much like the lead paint chinesium crap of today.

Funny enough, it was an American that taught them modern manufacturing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W._Edwards_Deming

Got to love the venerable P-38 and P-51 can openers!

Yep! And they actually work pretty well. I've used one in the field before.

Note to new owners of that type of can opener, "Do not carry in pants pocket!" Or put on your key chain!

By the third can that overpriced other can opener is gonna look better and better.
I know from experience. The P38 is better than a bayonet or missing out on them cold ham and eggs.
