Do you realize that the repair of the Bay Bridge in Northern California was outsourced to China? Why wasn't it made in USA? Check out the picture of the Governator at the factory in China pointing out the new bridge section.
This could be a good day.  Last evening I was a bit pissed to find out via Schwarzenegger's tweets that the Bay Bridge sections were being built in China, then I remembered that if I recall it correctly our public works contracts had a 'Buy American' clause when federal funds were used. I'm now wondering how they got around that?  Seems that someone is committing contract fraud or no federal funds are being used for the bridge repair and I doubt that.  Oh well, I guess they just exported public works to China.
