Well, i'll tell you, I am pretty PO'd about it!! I don't like ANYTHING from there, but food and Kenpo.
Yesterday at Platt i asked for some Industrial 20A recepts. They gave me Hubbells finest! Made in China. I said keep them. Let me have Leviton. They might be made in Mexico, but at least it is not China. Leviton's recepts, GFI's included: Made in China. So i went to Lowes. Went to get Cooper devices: Made in China, all recepts and all GFI's. Might as well be buying light fixtures!
How can i refuse to install things from China, when NOW EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING comes from there? I do NOT want to WARRANTY a house full of Chinese CRAP for one year knowing there is NO QUALITY control over there, or most anywhere else that US companies outsource to now. SQUAT.
Can I complain to my State contractors board, telling them i can't warranty a new house for material anymore? Can my idiot of a Kongressman/woman, Senator, ANYBODY DO ANYTHING? I CANT STAND BUYING ANYTHING FROM CHINA AND NOW THERE IS NOBODY LEFT THAT MAKES ANYTHING IN THIS GDAMNED STUPID COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:rant::rant:
AND OH BY THE WAY!!! THE PRICES WERE NOT ONE CENT LOWER!!!
