True Union Ball Valves

Giles said:

Are there any true union ball valves made in America? All I have found are from Communist China and are almost as hard to operate as my chinese valves that are about 5 years old. They are 1 1/2" valves for the return on my swimming pool.
I am just fed-up with buying Chinese junk!
If I can't find valves that can be operated by my wife, there is no need for me to change the ones I have.
Am I wrong in assuming American made valves are available and are easier to operate?

My apoligy for the duplicate post. I have had a death in the family and I completely forgot the first post. I even did a search and missed it!
It could also be blamed on a "senior moment"
Thanks for pointing this out.
I will try to delete this post.
