Several times I went to the store to buy a product I had always bought. There were none. 5 years later I saw them again ... made in China. All had been sold off and moved for cheaper labor.

So no douche secretary, there are no factories here to start building these products again. No incentive to buy them back, even if they are for sale, and labor's too expensive here anyway. This idiot operates in a delusional economic world!
