According to an expert in the lighting business, there are no CFLs  made 
in the US.  Some are sold by US-based companies but the product  is made 
in their China factories.  I suspect the same is true for  many other 
industries.

And I don't like it  either!



Bob,
 
If you look, just about ALL electric light bulbs of any type are now made  
in China. Westinghouse, GE, and several others are all Chinese. It's a sign 
of  the times. While it makes consumer products cheaper, (in theory) pretty 
soon  none of us will have jobs and be able to afford to buy anything 
anyway. Why is  it nobody looks at the big picture?
