2. Toys made in China

Has anyone else noticed that it's almost impossible to find any toys not made in China or in some sweatshop somewhere in any usual toy store? I have to order online or from good catalogs--and even then, I have to ask and dig a bit in order to find out where something's made.

What happened to us? We can't even make our own children's toys?! Wouldn't that be a good job for our out-of-work manufacturers? It's almost as bad as trying to find really American-made knitting yarn.
