NAFTA only affects goods made in Canada or Mexico. I bet those slippers were made in China, Vietnam, or some other country like that. The problem is US. Everybody wants cheap prices so we get junk that won't last. How many people would buy slippers made in the USA if they cost say $59?

I bought a Made in the USA (USA materials too according to tag) bath rug at Walmart of all places the other night. Price was $15 instead of $10, but I liked the USA made one better anyhow.

USAHappy Feet dot com, Ok I admit they have some really silly styles available, but some of the most comfortable slippers I've ever had. Made in the U.S.A. most are around $25-$29.. You asked, kinda.
