Where do you buy your stuff? Are your pilot shirts made in America? Your pants? Your underwear? Your shoes? Your pubs bag? Are you flying an airplane made in the United States? (If not, tell your union that the company should only buy American). How about your car? Are all the parts in the car made in the US?
If you can't answer yes to the above, then shut your pie whole. If you can answer yes, then you are walking the walk and talking the talk.
Don't get me wrong. I hate Orinstein as much as the next guy. If it is made better, I buy American. I buy good quality shirts, shoes and pants. Many of my clothes come from LL Bean. I purchased one cheap pubs bag; after the bottom came apart and my pubs blew accross the ramp, I went out a purchased a good one. I will not fly NWA (even though my brother works there), because they suck. Even if the price is cheaper. But when it comes to underwear and t-shirts, I go to Walmart.
I am proud to say I recently bought a Scott Leather Flight Case MADE IN THE GOOD OL' USA!!! Oh, and if you buy from Gap... well, your stuff was made by little kids in India. ::Pie-hole open::
