It got me thinking about all the good things that are made in the USA, and I was able to come up with a pretty impressive mental list. Hopefully, other posters will join in.

#1 Airplanes

Hey, if Airplanes are made in USA then why are the seats so tiny?

Quite a few people are making Double Basses in USA now. I wouldn't say that we are competing with the high production from abroad but at least in the quality area we are putting up a pretty good fight..

Weapons of Mass Destruction.

It's pretty safe to say that those manufacturing jobs won't be outsourced to China for a long, long while. A long, long, while.
