| Buy American or The Best Available? I personally do not understand why they cannot change the law to allow DOD contractors to produce this product for this purpose (no exeptions). Then we wouldn't have this problem. Buy-American vs. safety makes for battle over military uniforms - CNN.com |

| Re: Buy American or The Best Available? If you're getting shot at, you want the vest that stops the most bullets, you're not looking at the label. In cases where quality is equal, then sure, buy American. But if it's not, you're rewarding poor(er) standards, and that's not the American way... |

| Re: Buy American or The Best Available? I'm not gonna lie, I really don't pay too much attention to the "made in ___" labels. That's bad, I know.

| Re: Buy American or The Best Available? Best available, as in what I'm looking for within a certain price range. I refuse to be guilted into buying inferior products whether it be by price or where it's from. |

That might make a good thread. Everyone finish the sentence: "One would hope..." "One would hope that all restaurant employees would wash their hands after using the bathroom." "One would hope that the surgeon performing one's triple bypass hasn't been up taking crank for ten days." Etc, Etc.
