While I find it admirable that you wave your money and the flag at the same time, I ask you where was your computer, cell phone, t.v., toaster, microwave etc. all made? more than likely, not here. I love our country for the simple fact that we can buy a Car from AMERICANS that are made in South Africa. Yet we still cannot legally obtain a Cigar from Cuba! and after all the REAL ONES were made in England then finished here.
