I wish I was drinking cider, can't keep that **** at the office.

With the Boulder toolbelts, what side is the cupholder on?
 
Isnt that the point of this page anyway does anyone have an updated list of the 100% made in usa companies
The point of the page is to find Made in USA products, which describes that chalk line. You're the only guy insisting a manufacturer's entire line be domestic for any of the products to be good enough.

It can't be easy to make competitive products when you're paying US wages, US taxes, US rents/property prices, etc. Consider giving people some credit for manufacturing domestically for the few products that they can and still stay in business.

Why does it have to be black and white, all or nothing?

You'd be signaling to them and their competitors that you are willing to pay premium for US made products. If you did enough of that, they might even bring more product manufacturing stateside.

If you shun the USA made products from their line, why would they make even more products in the USA?

It's about incentives, choices, etc. You are actually exacerbating the situation.

If you buy from those companies they are still getting money to manufacture products in China and contributing to their GDP and economy

I'm starting to think your made in USA bull**** belongs in P&R, this thread is for pragmatic people looking for domestic tools. You're on some kind of crusade that most people can't identify with.
 
If anyone else is interested I started a list for companies that make 100% of their products in the United States
