You are so right. I boycott products that send their factories oversees. There is a furniture factory called Lazy-Boy that recently closed a big plant in Utah, putting hundreds of families out of work. Where did they relocate? To MEXICO, where the workers will work for a couple of pesos an hour. I will NEVER buy any of their furniture again.
