I have been buying with thought for awhile now and i cant stand the thought of supporting child labor. So I thought as a consumer I have done what I can why not share some links to help others.


This link is not the only option just one of the easier to work with.

For 20 years, our government has screwed up our trade programs. This would benefit more than just trying to prevent child labor. It'll send a message to the world about US/Canadian products, and go a long way towards fixing the trade deficit problem, not to mention saving OUR jobs.

Unfortunately, none of those products are available at Walmart and that is where everyone shops. A Walmart customer knows the price of everything, but the value of nothing.

On a serious note, I am amazed at the number of "name brand" products that are made in China, Taiwan or anywhere but the US. I just got a new ThermosTM one liter with the two removable cups and special quick release pour spout. Guess where it was made? China
