I didn't bash America at all. I just took exception to your opinion. You're the one that assumed that meant I was bashing America.

My business actually brings non-US funds into the US economy, can you say the same?

Actually, yes you did...you said "I see that the "Ugly American" is alive and well online. {heavy sigh}" Did you mean Just me? or were you, as it is clearly intended, "stereotyping" many Americans?

Yes, I can. It also keeps Jobs right here in America. Unlike 90% of the rest of the adult "marital aids" in this industry. Your assumption about almost all of them is accurate. Not us.

"Proudly manufactured in the United States of America" and the American flag grace every box, and every Virtual Sex Machine leaving our factory.
ESPECIALLY the ones going internationally. (They of course, do have to show the "country of manufacturing Origin.")
In fact, I think you will find no less than 8 instances of it on our product.
Even the Circuit boards are made, assembled, and packaged in America.


Some "fun Facts."

Our circuit boards cost 357% more than the ones I could have made in China.
The Plastic parts are almost all made in the US, except two small plastic rings, that are either made in Canada, OR the USA. (We can't control which ones we buy, or we would. There is ONLY one supplier of Black Acrylic tubing available anywhere in the USA.)
If you open up the interface Box, you'll find our circuits boards wearing the "Made in USA" label, Fused into the board with Copper. It used to say "Proudly manufactured in the United States of America," but with Board version 6.7c there simply wasn't room, physically on the board to do it safely anymore.
The plastic cases for the board, are made in either the USA, or China. We ONLY buy the ones made in the USA, and they must be certified. We pay an extra 40 cents or so, for the specific American ones. (Depends on the quantity we order.)

The chemicals, we cook for the inside liner, have "origin USA" on their label, as required by law. Again, we would not accept anything from outside the USA.

So, almost EVERY dollar brought in from outside the USA to my company is money coming INTO the economy, and almost NONE is going out.

You'll find I "walk the talk."
Feel free to find out for yourself. I challenge you.

Now, bringing it back to the thread.......while we clearly indicate we are an American Company, and the Product is Made in the USA, you don't see me pissing on anyone's flag on my site, do you?

Actually, it is what most "rally 'round the flag" Americans don't get: When you push the idea of "proudly American", you are in some ways pissing on everyone else.

God bless America, because you know god wouldn't bless anywhere else. Only America deserves the blessing.

"American Made" has long stopped meaning quality or high end, now it means something more like "assembled by illegal mexican workers in a plant owned by Asians in a state that is trying to cede from the Union".

Sorry, it just doesn't wash.

I am with the site owner, the british flag is the proper indication of english language content. They could use an american flag, but then they would have to use terms like "nite" and "y'all".

That's exactly the attitude that pisses me off.
You SAY it has come to mean that because of the mass media controlled message of "gee, we're rich trust fund babies and feel guilty about our success, so we'll piss on the system to makes ourselves feel better."

That's not when I grew up, not how I feel, and not what "proudly made in the USA" means to me.

No mexican workers here in Central PA man, you're thinking about SOCal. We aren't part of that scene.

And once again, man asked my opinion, I gave it. Piss people like myself off, at your peril. The only thing that will suffer, is sales.
