The post seemed pretty unequivocal to me...wasn't much to "read" into it at all really.
There was no condemnation of China....it was about gear...my gear, and my choices..
It is more about the priorities in manufacturing in the USA and about balancing imports...It just so happens that except for automotive...China is the leading importer of products in the US...
Like I said you guys read too much into "my" post..
