If you had wound you trust it? Is there any real case law or regulation on what constitutes where something is made?

Russia still makes things, we just never really traded with them. They make good metal products and cars that eerily similar to BMWs. Bangladesh and Indonesia make a lot of textiles.

Obviously you’re not a drinker. frick, Russia might have the most famous export in the world that is pretty uniquely tied to it.

This country manufactures a hell of a lot more than it is given credit for. We just had a huge postwar advantage that started to even out globally starting in the Seventies when Japan and China became players on the scene. For most of the (20th Century the US and Britain dominated the list. The British Empire became the dominant power in the world for a century as a result of dominating manufacturing. The US did the same in the (20th century
