Buy American!!!

Have any checked your tractors to see where they are made. Very hard to find a new us tractor in the 100 hp an under.
The heavy equipment about all of it is from some where other than us. Most is assembled here.

I've noticed that on construction siites there are very fewe Cat pieces of equipment, 99% is Komatsu. Even the new road district road graders are Komatsu

Guess the best I can hope for on equipment these days (that I can afford) is to not buy any made in China, Korea, or India. Massey broke my heart when I heard their compact tractors as using engines made in India. I wonder how long before they go the Deere route and have every thing below 100HP made over there.

I wish I could buy all made in the USA.

But you folks remember when a good pair of leather gloves cost
20 bucks?

Now you can buy good leather gloves for 3-4 $ made in China of course.

China is #1 customer for raw US cow hide.
