She has brought me lots of souvenirs and the like back, and every one of them is made in China.

Including the Indianapolis 500 merchandise and the desktop Stars and Stripes.

This reminds me of the cold war where the USSR and US spent a fortune trying to beat each other in areas like biological warfare. We must remember that the Americans spent millions developing a pen that could write upside down in zero gravity and the Russians just took pencils
