It's damn hard to "Buy American" these days. Try to buy a brand new toaster that isn't made overseas. Just about every single one, from the $15 two-slice to the $90 talking front-loader toaster oven is made in China.

Globalization has taken over our lives, whether we like it or not. Look at the bright side: we hold the patents on the good shit that our third-world slaves manufacture for us.
