That a whole can of worms, not what this thread is about,, however I was at Wallymart and I was in the tool section just looking and all the tools said made in china... and I was sorta talking to myself but out-loud.. the guy next to me heard me and he said, you see all the tools with the chrome on them??? I said you mean the Stanley ratchets and sockets and he said yes all the tools that are chrome or chrome valdaium are all made in china.. I said not craftsman and he told me the story of the bionic wrench
Shame on sears for doing this and craftsman made in china.
My Grandpa who used to love craftsman and had many many craftsman tools that all said made in usa on them. ** He left me a drill that is older then me ** Over 40 years old and its a craftsman and works perfect and came from sears with a 6ft cord.. Ever notice now power tools have small cord?
Also did you know that no flat screen device is made in usa?
also China steals intellectual copy right laws....
I'm a big fan of the Young Turks on YOU TUBE and they talk about that kinda stuff and the coal burning problem in china. I try not to buy things made in china but somtimes I cant help it... I just cant find what Im looking for made in usa. I was in Wallymart and I was looking around and the only thing i could find that said MADE in USA was some No2 lead pencils
but watch what Sears did to this guy...... I'm sure sears was making $ before but to ship the job over to china to make perhaps 2$ more per sale... watch this...
This story is old but I wonder what happend? The guy should of got a patent on it.
