I caught part of Dana's interview on your show Doug's Happy Hour; ok so we get stuck paying a corporate empire 50 bucks for an American made binder, because they have farmed out all of their low end binder production to Mexico. We are talking " high quality" plastic that lists below 50 dollars! What a rip off. Then to top it off I can't find out if the guts are union printed( another 49 dollars).
Thanks pal,
Tom
