“Made in the USA” Flags Only

It’s the law in Minnesota. The American flag has to be made in the USA:
“The state of Minnesota has taken the most draconian action, requiring all US flags sold in the state to be of American manufacture. Violations of the law, which comes into force at the end of the year, will be punished by a $1,000 (£495) fine or 90 days in jail.”

It will be interesting to see how this legislation will be enforced. - The country feeling the greatest impact from such legislation would be China. One hopes that the same vigor would be applied to contaminated products from China, such as tainted pet food, poisonous toothpaste, toxic toy paint, compromised sea food…

This whole blaming China thing on the recalled items is nothing more than a smoke screen for the same thing happening with American made products. For example livestock feed has been found to contain ground up concrete and newspaper….and that can’t be making really healthy beef. Farmed fish are being fed cat food, and that certainly is not what fish eat. All of these sick twisted food additives(which are far more than I have mentioned) are the reason for contaminated foods and issues of this kind occurring these days. It is a common ploy of our government to redirect blame for issues they themselves are under attack for. Right now there is a lot of issues concerning food safety in America that the government is refusing to acknowledge, redirection is their scapegoat for accountability.
