Im all for the US but I could care less if a product is made on the moon, if it works, it works.
You had a mortage you had a car payment you had to put food on the table for your family you had to buy insurance utilites etc? The only job you could find was flipping burgars at Micky dees but the problem is everybody elese jobs got shipped over seas and you are going against people with college back grounds because they can't find anything eles either. You lose your house you lose your car and the bank repos the house. You cant leave because you dont have a place to go. So the bank calls the sheriffs office deputys come over and you have 15 minutes to grab what ever you can grab and they throw you and your family out into the street! They change the locks so you cant get back inside. Your out in the street with your little girl and she is crying and asking Daddy why cant we go home? You dont have the answer because you dont know either. And it finally hits ya Greed pure Greed is why your family is out in the street and you pray to God you can get to the shelter before all the beds are full because if your late they will hand you a blanket and say Sorry Sir all our beds are full tonight, So you got to the nearest park with your family to try and find a safe place to sleep that night anbd pray to God you and your family dont wake up dead! You think this is BS? Think again because is happens every day right here in America Now how you feel about grabing the china crap tool now? I TRUELY CARE FOR EVERY ONE OF THOSE AMERICANS THAT IS WHY I AM SO PRO AMERICAN MADE PRODUCTS |
Sorry, i did not come here for a discussion on politics, just polishers. I feel this is an issue you should take up with your local politicians. I understand this happens everyday in our country, but i fail to realize how chastising someone for using a tool not currently made in the US will help. Perhaps you should become a tool maker and make a polisher similar to the Flex 3401, i will purchase your first available unit.

We don't really have a choice anymore as far as purchasing American made electric tools. There all gone! So are the jobs and the factories. Now days we have to buy imported tools, So again I did not nor did I intend to offend you, |
