Actually, all Intel chips are manufactured up the street from where I
live. Most Intel engineers are Oregonian. As far as companies,
especially tech companies, go, you just don't get more Oregonian than
Intel.

Nike pays the highest wages of any apparel company anywhere in the world
and has multiple watchdog groups that all agree that Nike hasn't been
using sweatshops since it was brought to thier attention that a
subcontractor was using them in the early 1990s. Nike's act is clean,
please do your research.
