Yeah but isn't most everything made in China now? I mean the Bay Bridge retrofit is from China. Everything is from China now. They get the raw materials from Russia and places like that, make the shit and then sell it to America. That's the way it is now. My wife has a American made sports car that she's had for 22 some odd years now and many of the parts on it were made in Japan (rims), third center rear brake light (Italy) and too many pieces made in Mexico to even list. Our land fills on American soil are filled with shit from China, Japan, Taiwan, etc. So no sense in getting all worked up over it now.
As for Wal-Mart, the only time I was in there was buying the Journey albums. When I was in Wal-Mart picking up the Journey albums I swear I was in K-Mart or Target. Does Wal-Mart have a built in Taco Bell, KFC, and/or Pizza dispensery inside of it like Target does? I don't remember if it did or not. I'd NEVER eat anything out of those places. Talk about shitty bad food, but still seems there are lines of people waiting for their share of it. Proves people will eat anything just as long as it's deep fried and/or that has some type of sauce on it. And Costco....holy fucking shit! I think its accurate to state that some families go there just to eat dinner. Want to live longer, healthier, happier lives? Simple solution.....just stay away from instant, frozen, canned, freeze dried, fast food, and all cured meat products including the entire Slim Jim product line. May even help a person sleep better at night without all that bullshit in their system.
Walmart, being the largest retailer, led the way into buying shit from China. The founder, Sam Walton, prided himself in selling everything "Made in America." That used to be their mantra. Walton was a self made million/billionaire. Once the head honcho croaked, whoever took over destroyed that concept and they became sellouts for the almighty dollar. I read that a British company may be giving Walmart a run for its money. I'm tired of all the inferior garbage made in China, and of Americans losing their jobs. Global is a means to an end for some.
Do you ever wonder about the $4.00 prescription drugs Wally World sells you? I'll bet they come from China. A couple of years ago, around 100 US citizens died from tainted Heparin, made in....you guessed it....China. Of course, China disavowed any claim of wrongdoing. I also blame the US manufacturers, who are complicit in this.
As for that frankenfood you mentioned, I would never touch that test tube shit with a ten foot pole. Why do you think so many people are fat, lazy, and sick? Diabetes, heart disease and cancer, among others, are all the result of a bad life style. You are so right about eating good healthy food. I see the grocery store sometimes has "Organic, grown in Mexico." An oxymoron for sure. They crap in the fields, the food gets contaminated, then the idiots put out all these hoaxes as scare tactics. Get the freakin Mexicans out of the fields, give them toilets at least, and teach them how to use one.
