Round rubber is made in INDOASIA 100%
Silicone skirting material is made in vietham all major companys that sell the skirting material they buy 99.9 % comes from vietham SO WHEN JIG COMPANYS SAY THEY ARE AMERICAN MADE WELL THE HAND TIED PART IS BUT THE MATERIALS ARE NOT AMERICAN MADE. EVEN MOST HOOKS AND SKIRT BANDS & RATTLES ARE NOT AMERICAN MADE. MOST MAJOR LURE COMPANYS THAT MAKE JIGS AND SPINNERBAITS AND BUZZBAITS ARE MADE IN CHINA

BOTH HAVE ALOT OF BAITS MADE IN CHINA SO HAVE A NICE DAY
I hate Import products and as far as the American thing...pretty good example of whats wrong with this Country.
I've been in the Plumbing and Hydronics Industry for a long time. We have to stock Domestic product only for Government job's makes you wonder huh. The crap made in China is just all your basic fittings they cant make any kind of Relief Valve or Pressure Regulator.
I go out on Boiler start up's and you know the best made are from Germany. One of the best Sewage pumps we sell are made in Kentucky at a Union Plant and they are Damn proud of it. The best Wet side pumps are made in Denmark. Get my point America has sold itself to China and I for one am very sad.
One more thing dont by a Damn thing from Wallmart.

Have some original 12" and 16" valves where I work that were made in the '30's - late '40's from Germany that even have the swastica on them from when they were manufactured. So that goes to show how long ago we were improting/trading here. There are new Tarrifs on all steel products now up to 60% .... But guess where the Bay Bridge is getting all their pre-fab structual steel from ?? .......Because it is STILL CHEAPER !!!
Believe it or not- The packing on those German Valves for a bell bonnet gate style has never failed/ needed adjustment for fugem emmisions/ and are some of the easiest turning valves still out here other than twin seals and orbits !
You know, we always called each other goodfellas. Like, you'd say to somebody: "You're gonna like this guy; he's all right. He's a goodfella. He's one of us." You understand? We were goodfellas, wiseguys.
U guys are killing me! Are ur lives that bad that u need to cry about politics and where products are made all day. If any of u had half the brain to produce these products u would have done the same thing. Most of these companies that are having products made out of the U.S. would not exist others wise. Stop being a hater and go fishing. The bitching is becoming a problem on this site!
Let's just say those companies that bailed came back for just a year, you still think we'd be in a recession not to mention the jobs. It time to think about the people of the U.S.A before it's too late if it's not aready. thats all
