Look carefully ay labels - don't fall for "Distributed by ..." Find the place of origin - it's amazing what I have learned to live without. Not a penny for China from me.
Yes! I've spent many more hours than I should have to finding products made in USA (or at least NOT china). They definitely hide it whenever possible. "Designed in USA" is another sign that it is made in China. Likely that they stole the US design and then made it over there.
Yup, they are tricky about it too. Some products are assembled in the U.S by globally sourced materials which I guess is fine right? I don't see the harm in some global trade but the idea of little to no manufacturing in America and China being the "world factroy" is totally disgusting.
There are options for usa made clothing, furniture and other things. It's very annoying to type in "usa made sneakers" into my search engine and then spend a significant amount of time searching through the results to find actual usa made sneakers. There are not many choices. I bought a pair of KEEN sneakers made in the usa, made in PORTLAND lol, but it was tricky because if you go to keen's website most of the shoes are not made in the usa and there is a specific tab for their usa made products and it's low on choices. Usa made electronics are very scarce. I also have Diamond and Gusset usa made jeans, all american clothing company.com, american giant clothing but sadly they posted some bullshit about racism on their instagram after George Flloyd overdosed aka "killed by evil whitey". Lastely I have usa made vitamins by Dee Cee labs bought them from earth turn's website.
On the flip side if you find a quality made in USA product please share

Defund China, defund their War Machine.
1 best thing people can do is NEVER SHOP AT WALMART AGAIN.
Will people listen and stop shopping there? Judging by the parking lot last time I drove by a Walmart, no.
