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.
