my company also is high tech; we make lasers and detectors for fiber optics. I can't see how what we do can be exported, what w/ the amount of custom work we do.
our pkg though is south of the border. that concern was inherited from our predecessor company.
I also miss legacy products that are no longer domestically mfgrd: converse, levis, tonka, etc. some companies compromise, their higher priced items are domestic, the lower are imported. all-clad, kitchenaid do this. trek and cannondale bicycles used to be like this, but now most all their stuff is chinese. funny, though, the prices didn't come down, but I guess profits went up.
also, I don't see how anyone can be proud that one of the largest exports is weapons.
wow, that was 3 'alsos', must be a record for me!
