BTW, the answer to my question above is "the USA." We are the biggest manufacturer on earth.
Do you know how incredibly hard that is to believe when everything you run across in day to day life is made in China?

I think there are two items in my life that i'm pretty sure were made here.. actually.... 3.

1.) The Ford ranger i have the title to.
2.) My dogs collar ( I s**t you not, i actually saw made in the USA on the packaging when i bought it, which floored me)
3.) Mr Mossberg 500.

Everything else in my possession, is made in China or elsewhere. If we really are the worlds biggest manufacturer, surely there would be more items that say Made in USa - but they're aren't. I know, at least i think i would, because i look for domestically made items and buy them specifically over chinese made items when i can.

edit:
My bottom line is this: I love my country. I HATE .. yes.. HATE, with a fervent passion seeing jobs being lossed, and our industry being exported overseas. I DO NOT CARE about ANY foreign country. Not china, not india, certainly not Korea, nobody. They can all go to hell for all i care. I only care, about my country. If we do not take care of ourselves first, then NOBODY will.
