"99% of the products sold in the US might come from China, but that is not the choice of the American people. That is what has been foisted upon us by the corporations that have destroyed OUR manufacturing base in the name of greed and profits."

That's not "entirely" true. I remember when cheap (affordably priced?) products washed up on our shores and consumers jumped on them like starving wolves. We had our opportunity to cast our vote, and we voted "cheap."
