Made in China - just don't get it

We go to Patriot's Point in Mt. Pleasant for the big 4th of July celebration. Lots of volunteers are handing out thousands of small American flags, wooden stick, plastic flag 8" long. What does it say on the side of the flag - Made in China. WTH??? Really. You would think if nothing else could be made in America it would be our own little flags. Could they cost that damn much to produce here? Kind of deflating when I sit down and get handed my very own Chinese-made American flag.
