• In 2008, the dollar value of U.S. imports of American flags was $3.4 million. The vast majority of this amount ($3.0 million) was for U.S. flags made in China.


• The dollar value of U.S. flags exported in 2008 was $569,400. Belgium was the leading customer, purchasing $186,400 worth.

I remember some hubub last year about only allowing flags produced in the US to fly at gov. buildings, etc.

What if a Chinese immigrant works at the US flag plant?  Does that invalidate it?
