See Economics 101.
Manufacturers don't have an agenda, other than to make a profit in order to stay in business. When that becomes impossible, they'll go out of business and more people will become unemployed.
It really is as simple as that.[/quote]
Yeah, I never took that...guess it shows.

I fear soon China /Asia will own us ALL and our grandkids will all be working for them !! :(

Our LQS owner said she receives a magazine for quilt shop owners which had an article in it (which she showed us) that the cost of cotton has really gone up in the past year, now the price of our fabric is starting to climb.

That is hard to take. I don't like the local chain fabric store but with their 50% off coupons maybe I can just double the fabric when I use it?
Or how about Connecting Threads? Or other online companies? Is it going up there too?
