It's really cool to see this happening. I think about this stuff quite a bit and always try and buy at least used things if they seem like they're coming from these third world sources. When you really lift the veil and see the contrast and relationship between our two worlds it makes you seriously question our priorities and values. It's almost always an issue when something is made in the US, the prices tend to be too high for us to be comfortable with. But it's only fair! right? As a general principle, setting aside the economic factor, it makes no sense to ship over those things from halfway around the world, assuming they could be made just as easily over here. Anyway, thank you for writing this, it doesn't get mentioned enough. Hope you and Joseph are doing well. Haven't been in touch w Chuck but me and Alex talk a fair amount. All the best.
