[quote=PamTurner]Oh, also, to explain the cost I have to ask you to forget it is a needle and think of it as a solution. Needles are all made cheaply overseas, plated with nickel and made by low wage earners. My needles are made in Minnesota where the shop time is $75/hr. It was a political/emotional choice I made to have my needles made in the US. The down side is the cost.
For this reason I change my opinion, I support anyone making a concious decision to have a product made in the USA, I Will pay extra when I know this is the case!!!!! Thank you for keeping your bussines in Amarica.

PS
I know there are members from other countries on this board, I mean no disrespect . I am sure you feel the same about your country. I just feel moved to stand up when I ,as a low to middle class American see good people like my dad who is fast approaching 70 yrs continue to have to go to work in the factory every day. I will get off my soapbox, I just wanted to explain a little since We have members from other Countries, that I mean no disrespect.
