Good song, unfortunately no one cares about "Made in America" anymore. I'm remodeling my bathroom, and do you know how hard it is to find a shower faucet that is made in America? It's really quite obvious that to fix the economy, we have to start making things here.

Hey John,

Unless they've changed their modus operandi, did you check out Moen?

That's what I went for, I think Kohler is also made here, but I didn't see it on the box. And can you guess where American Standard is made? No, not China, but Mexico! I'm pretty sure Mexico doesn't care about any of America's standards.

You're right, again. Made in beautiful Kohler, Wisconsin. Don't know their outsourcing policies, but the family is very pro USA. Their American Club Hotel in Kohler is a delight.

There is actually lots of stuff made in the USA. Problem is most people are too lazy to seek them out or they would rather pay $1.00 less for the cheaper foreign import.
Of couse of you want a plasma TV you are out of luck. Garments are getting tough too.
When I buy hand tools I try the antique shops first and get good US steel.

All my antique bottles are 100% USA made !!

Classic today at work. I sent out one of my workers to pickup a new blow nozzle for our air compressor at work. Someone walked off with our others but thats another story. He comes to work all happy with this nice shiny NAPA nozzle.

Notice the "CHINA"[:D]
