We needed a new corkscrew, and didn't want one made in China
We broke a corkscrew the other day. Made in China is something this house avoids. We looked several places. No luck. Then while shopping at the grocery, I saw several for sale. The one we bought wasn't made in China. Mexico, etc.
Made in Italy. I was shocked but happy. It looks like most of their items are made in the USA.

That counts for something...

Silly DUmmy. You don't need a corkscrew for a twist off cap.

The primitives are screwed, no matter what they do.
On one hand, they have to support a socialist paradise of the workers and peasants with free medical care for all, by helping that paradise's economy expand.
On the other hand, the primitives make a lot of noise about being supportive of American labor, most especially American union labor.
So what to do?
But something else enters into the picture.
The primitives are cheap tightwads, so we know what they're most likely to do.

You misunderstand. The corkscrew they're talking about is a specialty sex toy.

Maybe Steve should ask the wine expert crim son. :-)
He could ask her right now matter of fact. She's drunk off her butt posting in the lounge. I'll bet she knows where all the corkcrews come from.
