I'd like to visit China, but my lack of a passport, money, and desire to bolster the economy of a corrupt communist regime all get in the way.

 You do realize that half the stuff you use was likely made in China, right?

You are probably already bolstering their economy.

 How is that any worse then bolstering the economy of a corrupt capitalist regime?

That was more to DrCrow's comment, but I guess it makes more sense for it to have been to you so my apologies. :)

 Agreed...from this point forwards you should consider purchasing only products made in Canada. Begin with your bacon and oil and carry on from there...

If it's any consolation, most of the stuff I own is second-hand, anyway.

Second-hand bacon? I would not care to try it...you are correct: I feel very consoled...

Nah, not the bacon. I'm not allowed to eat pork from either the first or second hand.

They closed all the schools despite the fact that it looks like we will get an inch of snow at the most, good night.

I have only ever lived in Delaware and never been to state that has real blizzards, but the way people here panic over a few inches of snow still makes me laugh.

China isn't communist. They run a hardcore capitalism. Well they have single party system, but that's no different from US two-party system with two (in reality) exactly the same parties.
