...don't let all this "rah-rah USA--we have to bring production back HOME" BS fool you. The American public has a VERY short memory. As soon as things BEGIN to return to "normal"--the market is recovering, supplies are back on the shelves, international trade resumes, and the daily infection rates/death tolls have been reduced to "acceptable" numbers, no one is going to care where anything/everything is manufactured. As long as whatever you want is readily available, and CHEAP, that's all that will matter. That's what got us to where we are now, and nothing is going to change in the long-run. Sad, but true...
"And today is for sale and it's all you can afford. Buy your own admission. The whole things got you bored. Well the Lord chooses the good ones, and the bad ones use the Lord"--a very dear friend for decades Michael Stanley (Gee)--RIP
