Default Re: Hard times in the land of plenty.

I would have probably felt compelled to leak this abhorent practice by my employer to the press... But, I bet this practice is quite rampant - for Made in the USA stickers to be miss-applied to Chinese/Taiwanese products to increase sales. I always wondered why anyone would want to put "made in China" on their product?!

If we would have said that about your buddy Obumer we'd be called racist. Let's see who's neck gets rung in November.

Yes, quite true. Because when you've been the one whose neck has been put in a noose, then you get to call those that did it RACISTS.
It's going to be 4 more years and the RepugliCONS know it.
Keep up the machining.
