Yep and now you are not helping the world economy by purchasing that cheap chinese crap that currently passes for quality merchandise in the US (tongue FIRMLY planted in cheek) I agree completely. You also should add about not cluttering the landfills up with cheap broken disposable stuffs. Kind of on topic. Anybody know how many bicycles we could get out of a recycled junk car?
