THOSE CUTE BUNNIES AND OTHER EASTER DECORATIONS

Even before Lent, stores already have Easter decorations. There are cute bunnies galore, some put into baskets with faux eggs and grass made from raffia and fabric bunnies with spring colors. Turn them over and look where they are manufactured and I’ll bet it’s China.

Beyond the concern over a trade deficit, we should wonder why we buy these decorations made in a country where churches are routinely closed, human rights abrogated, and any dissent brutally quashed.
