Buy American?

It has been a long winter and it hasn't let up.  It started before Thanksgiving and here we are approaching St. Patrick's Day.  Then Easter, the last day of March.  Can you believe (of course you can) Walmart took down the Valentine sale items and started putting up Easter Baskets, Easter bunnies, Easter eggs.  Please, Walmart, let us enjoy our lives.  They go by fast enough.  And all these holidays mean to you is money, money.

When I was a child, we made our Easter Baskets out of Quaker Oatmeal boxes, for the colored eggs and maybe a chocolate egg with our name on it...or maybe not.  We had a great family day..hiding colored eggs, it was a family day.  All right, you say boring.

There's nothing boring about waking up and finding this big Easter basket wrapped in cellophane, that you saw yesterday at Walmart's?   Do you realize Walmart has become our Easter Bunny, our Santa Claus. Our country shows it patriotism by flying American flags, made in China...Eat on red, white and blue paper plates...I'm sure most of our fireworks are Chinese made.  At Thanksgiving it's napkins with turkeys, pumpkins, etc. that decorate our table. Made in China   You think about it.  China has stolen our holidays with the help of Walmart and the American public..(you and me)

Walmart and China has stolen our American way of life...or did we give it to them and paid them them take it?
