Question Team USA To Be Decked Out In Uniforms Made In China

Team USA To Be Decked Out in Uniforms Made in China | ABC News Blogs - Yahoo! News

Quote:
They are the pride of America - Team U.S.A. - and for the opening ceremonies of the Summer Olympics in London, they'll be proudly wearing red, white and blue, from beret to blazer.

The classic American style - shown in an image above - was crafted by designer Ralph Lauren. But just how American is it?

When ABC News looked at the labels, it found "made in China."

Every item in the uniforms that the U.S. athletes will be wearing at the opening ceremony in London will carry an overseas label.

It is rare that we find clothing or anything today made in america.

But at least have your country make your olympic clothing, since you're repping this country and all.

I find it funny how these politicians feign outrage over this. Maybe they should look in the mirror, because their policies have pushed companies to go overseas, shit we even have people giving up their US citizenship.

But I guess it's a lot easier to point the finger at the companies/people
