Default Power Deregulation - any feedback about third party suppliers?

It's for the children.

Just not OUR children.


If YOUR teen-ager wanted the latest Nike sneaker, you'd have to pay
$499.99 for an American-made one instead of a paltry $295.00 for a
pair made in Nigeria.

So YOU and YOUR children benefit.

And the total landed cost to produce in Nigeria would be something
less than $29.50, so who is REALLY benefitting???


As I said, YOUR kids benefit, along with everyone else in the supply chain.

As an aside, if you want the same deal as the importer, I'm pretty sure you
could get it if you bought 100,000 pairs of these Nigerian sneakers.
