I have no problem paying 40% more for products that are made here...so what's the problem? We all do it every day you just dont realize it. My Jean's made in USA, Suits, Dress Shoes, all my aftermarket products for my dirt bikes, surf boards, snow skis, guns, cars(%), food(%), hell I try to buy made in the USA every day, do your research. Here's another ACE Hardware has allot of made in the USA products...can't obviously always buy but I try and don't mind paying. Because that money come back to me in one way or another buy foreign you'll never see it again.

^^^ Yup. China was the world's largest economy for most of the period before/during 1800s, and then collapsed under its own weight. The US has only been on top for slightly over 100 years. China and India have been on a steady climb for decades.

People like him should be given a medal... and a ton of money to continue working toward solutions. They are some brilliant and dedicated Americans.

It wasn't that one, watching that one tonight. This one is from the "Explained" series called "the next pandemic". It came out in November, right before this thing struck. It was almost prophetic.

And yes, those guys should get all the funding they need.
