Murf, "gentleman who shot at me." I find it odd that a gentle man would should at you. I think he would be anything but gentle.

DR-CAFTA
Being the gentleman I am, I was staying out of this especially since I am just a low bottom feeding tool maker.
Many of the jobs I see being created are not able to pay the employee enough to allow them to pay for top of the line merchandise. Not ALL the jobs, but many of them. Many of us who make 60K and more a year may have forgot what it was like to sustain yourself on a lower paying job.
My wife and I do just fine (esp. since I went back to work ) but I still need to be frugal on what I buy and how much it costs. I watch the show "what not to wear" and my bride and I are just floored at what the east coast folks are willing AND ABLE to pay for clothing! Problem being that in this society we have created, unless there are two people working full time at decent occupations, to raise a family and ACTUALLY pay your bills is very hard, especially if you want to buy a quality product instead of one that is cheaply priced and cheaply made. I am guilty of buying cheap products, not all the time but on items that are short term or items that I would not expect to keep for a life time. Giving credit to some of the foriegn country's though, many clothing items have come a long way and are actually holding up way better than 10 years ago.
Its a double edged sword. If your not paid enough money to comfortably buy the product your company makes, how can a company cry about not having enough sales in this country?

Meta, one of the first things those nice people in Quantico, Virginia taught me years ago, was to be nice to all the people we encountered and treat them with respect.
Right up to, and sometimes even after the BANG.
That's called Battlefield Diplomacy ......
Best of luck.
