what isn't made in china now a days! The American flag we fly in front of our building was getting torn so we take a ride over to the local hardware store to grab a new one (wasn't a big box store like HD)...MADE IN CHINA!!! WTF!!!
came back did some quick searching and found https://www.usvetsnetwork.org/ American made flags and proceeds support veteran assistance programs.

Many places now sell USA flags. Walmart too if I;m not mistaken.
BTW: We have a ton of vets around here (we even have a POW/MIA monument down the street), and they take the used flags.Call your local VFW and ask them if they do too. According to the guys that come in 'We give them a proper ceremony when 'disposed of.' someday I need to see how they do it.

Merc does make some parts right here in the USA. The T bolt cap and the ign sensor is made by them in Florida, there is more especially on the outboard side. Boat Hulls are made in the USA just had to throw that one in haha
