As for the country of manufacture thing, some people do care, and try to buy USA made as much as they can.
Oh, I know lots of people care. Lots of people caring doesn't make it any more relevant. Product purchasing decisions should be based on factors such as function, purpose, quality, durability, reliability, price, and value. If you can find multiple products that meet or exceed your expectations and demands with respect to all these factors, then sure, go ahead and start narrowing down your field of choices based on less important factors, such as country of origin. But to mention country of origin first, as if that factor, in and of itself, is enough to automatically discount a product is just ludicrous, in my opinion.
