There's also a clothing store in the KC area that sells jeans that are 100% USA made. The workers who fabricate the jeans from start to finish are well paid with full benefits. A pair costs $200.

Walmart recently said they're moving back to the Made in the USA when possible. That will be a rough road.

The question is: Do you support workers in the USA, or do you take advantage of cheap Asian labor?
If I can get the wages I had in the '00's not a problem
was pullin 25 to 40 per hour depending on the job
we need to get high tech shit back only in country
computer chips are a national security issue not a profit issue



Israel has an intel fab one of the big ones
when the attacked syria
the chips in there anti aircraft guns or radar failed
you all want your defense industry electronics built somewhere else?
