States get the tax dollars from the Lottery (of course, that assumes it's going to be well spent).

A virulently gay-bashing, fundie-laden organization gets those donations.

I checked my labels the other day. I don't have any from Bangladesh, but China, Mexico, Philippines, & Honduras were there.

but it is made from rayon/cotton that was woven offshore.

That scares the hell out of me, this country doesn't make essential things like cloth or shoes, never mind replacement parts for cars and electronics. We no longer have the equipment to make any of this stuff on an industrial scale.

All we need is a disruption in trade routes to bring this country to its knees. We don't even need a war now.
