Drill bits

I assume you don't like HF because most items are made in China. Real mature. How about Best Buy.? Have you tried to buy a TV, Stereo, or just about anything else Best Buy sells that wasn't made in China. Whether you like it or not, HF does sell a lot of good stuff. And not everybody can afford to pay $300 for a set of drill bits.

#1: HF DOES carry some USA-made stuff. I almost made some dookie right here in the USA when I went looking for a blade for a 3-wheeler band saw (that someone tossed in my ditch, so I could flip it). Since the saw came from HF, so should the blade, and it was made in USA, so not everything in a Harbor Freight store is made in the PRC. The cancer you get from inhaling the fumes from their rapidly-degrading rubber products is also 100% USA made. Ahhhh, the HF smell....

As far as Best Buy, I don't buy from them, either. The computer I'm typing this on was built with as few Chinesium parts as possible. It just takes a little work. I think the original keyboard and the power supply were Chinese. The rest was from Somewhere Else. I don't buy TV's, stereos, or anything else made in China. The only reason I have a TV now is because the Wife had it when we got married.

If you want to see less "Made in China" stuff in stores, vote for someone who will not ship every frigging American manufacturing job to China.

After gun control, that is in fact my second-issue vote determination. F**k ANY politician that sends our jobs over there!

I even stopped eating canned Mandarin oranges because they're ALL made in the PRC. That was tough to give up.
