I'll gladly pay a little more for good-old USA made Estes A8-5's over Quest imports.
One of the few things Estes did right over the last 15 years was to NOT move their motor production to some overseas third-world Elbonia/Arsephartistan part of some cheap-labor country.
One of the few things that will cause me to pay more than actual market value for a product is if I find out it is actually PRODUCED in the USA; NO NATION has ever became rich providing services. You must PRODUCE durable GOODS. High time we stopped the policy of FREE trade with nations that tariff the crap out of our stuff when we export it to them. Time for a FAIR, not free, trade policy across the board and protect our few remaining decent manufacturing jobs.

Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
