U.S.A. Olympic outfits completely made in...CHINA!
ABC World News Tonight just had a story about the labels in the Olympic outfits for the USA team (including berets) showing everything was made in China. They reported if made in the good old USA, it might have been worth quite a tidy sum for US employees. No link yet on the ABC site.

It's OK with me.

I'd rather buy from the chinks than a lazy-ass greedy communist American union.

Thats about the size of it. You'd rather buy from a place that has a 12 y/o working 16 hours a day, for .50 cents and hour in terrible conditions, than do business with fellow citizens and domestic economy. Says it all.

I'm no great admirer of the Yanks but I really cannot believe this.
Surely the US has a clothing factory somewhere.

American olympians will all be wearing berets, looking very France-like and the blazer alone would set a non-olympian back 800 bucks!

Probably find they all were.

The only thing anyone can really do, is look to buy product made in their own country only. Support your own small businesses, if it costs you a little extra in the short run, in the long run it saves you ( product will be better quality and it means keeping jobs in your own country ).

Not that we got to choose where the olympic outfits were made, and even buying things made in our own Countrys prob wont be easy now, whatever they are.

It is a disgrace though, every country should of had these things made in their own country. But you will prob find only some European Countrys ( Germany etc ) still have the pride to do that.

Will be interesting to see where Austs were made, but you can near back It in the cheapest slave labour country the govt here could find.

“It is far easier to be a weakling than to be a Real Man. Were the Earth less harsh or the circumstances of life less austere, man would destroy himself before the shrine of the languid goddess. Only Real Men can with safety destroy the tangled forests and wilderness of Earth and make from them gardens, but will those who inherit the gardens be Real Men? The law decrees that they must be, or the wilderness will reclaim its own.”
