The One Dollar Hammer

Last week I went in our local "One Dollar Store" and bought a standard sized claw hammer--for one dollar! As I touched up the rough edges on my imported belt sander, I thought of the impossibility of manufacturing and marketing this hammer in my country today for one dollar. Now I know it's cheap and of low quality, and I'm not comparing apples to apples. It's just the fact that unlike the years when our beloved Power Wagons were built, our country has sold it's manufacturing soul. We have allowed the politicians and greedy traders to put us at risk of becoming slaves to foreigners...and I share some of the blame, because I work on my old Dodges with "bargain tools".
