Made in the USA!

Went to buy a hose caddy for the yard, something to help me control 60 feet of tangled garden hose. Strangely there were two choices at Lowe's...one, for $40, was made, as you would expect, in China...no doubt by mistreated peasant farmer children, sent to the big city with nothing but a change of clothes and a promise of an opportunity to go to 'school'.



Then there was this sucker! $10 bucks cheaper and made in the USA! WOOHOO! Of course the employees of the facility that pumped out this sucker are probably mistreated peasant farmer children, sent to the big city with nothing but a change of clothes and a promise of an opportunity to go to 'school'. Uh...







Hey, you play the cards and pick your poison, yes?

Probably mistreated peasant farmer children who owe thousands of dollars to the coyote who smuggled them over the border...
