Our nation's debt is literally indenturing our children to our international debt holders, but most Americans don't care because they are more concerned about the latest saga involving Snooki on Jersey Shore rather than what really matters, our country’s future.

Passaic factory that makes Girl Scout uniforms could lose business to China

If this happens I will no longer buy their overpriced cookies.

If you are like me and were a Boy Scout once upon a time you will be disappointed to find out that a majority of their uniforms are listed on the BSA official website as being "Imported", which as we all know is code for China. Shame on the Boy Scouts as well for their greed.

Passaic factory that makes Girl Scout uniforms could lose business to China


Workers at a New Jersey factory fear they could lose their jobs if the Girl Scouts of the United States of America takes its business to China.

Jackie Evans Inc. employs 90 workers at its Passaic plant. They've been making uniforms and sashes for the sole client for about 10 years.

Girls Scouts merchandise general manager Barry Horowitz told The Record newspaper the company is one of four it will seek proposals from. Horowitz says two of the vendors are overseas, including one in China

Horowitz said seeking new bids is a good business practice.

Rep. Bill Pascrell Jr. wrote the Girl Scouts' president to say American scouts could wear uniforms made "in part by young girls who would be deemed not old enough to work in the United States."
