@LangmanVince No, it’s a total lack of family raising their children. Kids with no father to discipline them and a mother working to raise them. Mom expects schools to raise them. They run around with social media as their guide.

[The Buy American Movement - BuyDirectUSA ❤️🇺🇸 @BuyDirectUSA]

In 2005, Oneida shut the flatware factory in Sherrill, New York.

A town that had made silverware for MORE THAN 100 YEARS was supposed to be finished.

Two men refused to let that happen.

Their names are Matt Roberts and Greg Owens.

Roberts had managed that factory. Owens was another former Oneida manufacturing manager. When the company ended U.S. production, they bought the plant and the equipment and reopened it the NEXT DAY as Sherrill Manufacturing.

They did not have a giant rescue fund.
They did not have a Hollywood ending waiting.
They had a building, some machines, and a workforce that knew how to make forks, knives, and spoons.

At first they kept making product for Oneida.

Then Oneida pulled the remaining American work and sent it overseas.

That should have been the end.

It wasn’t.

They took government flatware contracts to keep the lights on. In 2010 they filed Chapter 11. They sold unused equipment. They sold space they could no longer fill. They leased back only the part of the factory they could still run.

They came out of bankruptcy in 2013.

Then they did the thing that saved the company.

They built their own brand: Liberty Tabletop.

They sold 18/10 stainless flatware straight to customers who wanted tableware MADE IN THE UNITED STATES.

Not through a department store that could drop them overnight.
Direct.

Today Liberty Tabletop is the only company still manufacturing stainless steel flatware in America.

Same town.
Same trade.
U.S. steel.
About 70 jobs.

They did not bring back 2,000 workers. Nobody did.

What they saved was the last line.

If you want American-made forks and spoons, this is the factory that still makes them.

Support Liberty Tabletop.
THIS is what keeping manufacturing in America actually looks like. 🇺🇸

@AndrewCohill @Cypher_Ai1 @esrtweet Wasn’t talking about AI talking about app repository like Norton.

@WeaponAutism @uneedsoap This is not accurate. There is only one Costco in the state of Arkansas, that’s in Little Rock.

@BrianRoemmele Working in my family computer store, I had to learn board-level repair techniques. I went to multiple company-sponsored training courses for repairs on Commodore, Cromemco, and IBM. Learned a lot, plus self-taught. Growing up in a family of ham radio operators helped.

This is an unfortunate truth for the majority of governments globally. Global elites spend $ billions to have this and control the world.

2400 years ago, Socrates had a saying which perfectly encapsulates the mess that Great Britain is currently in.

The accuracy is terrifying….

[RJ @DeaconRj]

@DaveKent101 That’s true of most of the world today.

@BrianRoemmele In early ‘80’s I was getting my computer science degree. University had an IBM 370 for students to program on. You had to sign up for time and it was key punch cards, with batches submitted. Did COBOL, FORTRAN, and Machine language (assembler) on it.

@Arkypatriot @walgreens has the worst customer service and computer system's. They always argue with you. I have used them in AR, TN, CA & WA it's always the same condescending attitude and terrible service. I finally switched to different provider.

@BrianRoemmele We're in a shift that humanity as a whole has no idea is coming. Artificial intelligence and robotics are going to change humanity in ways few understand. The discoveries that are coming and the availability of goods and services are staggering. We only need fusion for power.

@BrianRoemmele My family had a computer store in the late ’70s to mid-’80s. I used many computers that most people only saw in ads: Commodore, Cromemco, IBMs, Altair and others like the Osborne. I also in mid 80’s worked in Apple Store. I had Lisa, Mac and Apple II.
