Nana- there is still cotton grown in the US.Probably not as much as we used to produce. The problem is we closed ALL our textile mills and sent them overseas. This started happening years ago and finally ended a year or two ago with the last of the mills closing. There are no longer Cannon sheets and towels made at mills in NC or fabrics milled anywhere in the U.S.! It all went over seas for cheaper production costs and now it is costing us in the long run. I'm not saying this as a political dig to either side but no cost of livingincrease is absurd as the price of everything around us goes up, and as someone mentioned earlier the size of the containers goes down. How can any politician in either party say the cost of living hasn't gone up? Maybe we need to be able to vote ob our own increases just as ALL the greedy politicians get to vote on their own payraises. OK - down off my soapbox, that is all.
