Well 52 views and no one has picked up on it.

Minnesota is the only State that requires Made in Murica Flags. They will not allow foreign made, (allthough initially cheaper) flags to be sold in the State........

Surely the Op didn't just see this on reddit and considered it 'new' as many of those folk seemed to.

Dat law has been around for almost ahhunnerd. Old story is old. Dern-tootin'.



A bedder example from when the Chinese-made flags were $4.99:

Why? Cuz **** MINNESOTA, THAT'S WHY. - Imgur

Can't really see one outlasting the other by a country mile in the elements eh.


Anyway, the only good thing to come out of Minnesoda was The Body. You betcha. ;-)

Reminds me of a Harley rider a few years ago bragging about his "American-made" bike. I got really nasty looks and a whole pile of invectives tossed in my direction when I pointed out the forks were made in Japan, the lights in China, the tires in Italy, etc.

But they do allow American flag bandanas made in China to be sold here.

I have to be honest, I was in the exact same place as Taxslave on the "what's the point" of the ad thing.

So the company may be famous for it's Chinese imports but it's not Justin Bieber famous or anything. My point being that while I don't follow the Beebs or pop music at all (ever, I never have a radio on) at least I've heard of him. Lol.

I only 'know' that because I looked it up. I'd never heard of them before this thread. But that's what they say, 'famous'. :lol:
