Still, I do prefer the pan to the knuckle ... sexier.
To get more or less back on topic, if you read the mag, "American Iron" you will see ads for lots of stuff Made in America, they are really pushing it ... and I think we can apply that drive to buy national to the shipbuilding industry. The cost of the finished product is not all that important. What should be taken into account is how does one best help domestic industry and the national economy ... by buying Korean, or by building the ships in Britain (probably at a higher final cost) and creating jobs for British workers. These workers will pay tax, buy homes, buy cars etc., etc. It's simple economics ... and common sense.
