What we can learn from outsourcing China’s used condoms.

Not much. So Alabama will lose about 300 jobs as the U.S. now looks to China for its American Made™ condoms, a growth industry there apparently. (And Dov turned that gig down? AA brand condoms—Laid in America.) Digging deeper, not sure this will be successful: Alabama has about 4.5 million people, China, 1.5 BILLION. Looks like Alabama’s condoms might be working just a little better, no? (Note to China, only one hole per condom, please.) Not to mention what they do with used product.

Back in the day, before Carter-Wallace closed up the Trojan Condom plant in Trenton, seeing the bridge with the "Trenton Makes, the World Takes" slogan always gave me a 12 year-old-boy chuckle.

If we're gonna take a closer look at this, it may be a big issue to the government of the United States when it comes to jobs, but no doubt, that the funds would be a lot cheaper if it was outsourced..
