Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 I can't wear " flip flops " . Many years ago, I had to have them to wear in the shower when I was in basic training. I had to have two pairs. It was mid 1971 when I had gone to my training at Parris Island, SC. I did not have an immediate reaction; but, as I've gotten older, it seems that I am more sensitive to a lot of things. My skin doesn't tolerate rubber. Most flip flops are made of rubber. I can't wear them and it doesn't matter whether they are made in China, Turkey, or the USA. My thinking is that China may not have as high of standards on manufacturing things as Japan does. I do not know that to be true though.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 ~ To tell you the truth, I stopped shopping at Wal Mart as soon as I realized that all of Sam Waltons morals and ethics were flushed down the proverbial toilet when he passed. It's a shame that Americans have allowed it to be come the way it is now. I don't even trust going there and getting their $4.00 scripts. I think it would be very wise if America would stop outsourcing all of our labor to other countries. But, that's just my opinion...And we know what that's worth, right? Love and blessings...
