Intro

USE IT UP, WEAR IT OUT. BUY AMERICAN, OR DO WITHOUT!

The every-day choices we make as consumers affect the health of American industry. As with any worthwhile discipline, such as a diet, in order to assure success, we need to learn to set manageable goals that we can live with. Although we each may feel a small part of the picture, together we can accomplish much. Especially as we educate and influence others as to how they can make a difference.

Please scroll to the bottom of the page for valuable Made in the USA links, including State-by-State. I also would like this blog to be intereactive, so please leave comments to let us know of your efforts to support the Buy American effort!

What's the Buzz on Buying American/Foreign Trade?

Here's an interesting place to read opinions.  On Amazon.com, search for books on the topic, then read the reviews written by the customers.  Such as this one: http://www.amazon.com/China-Price-Chinese-Competitive-Advantage/dp/B001KOTUCY/ref=pd_rhf_shvl_2  . . . "And doesn't it strike you that the people who shop at, say, Wal-Mart every day are the very same people who tend to lament the fact that US manufacturing jobs are off-shored to China every day. We all make a choice, every single day."  Then you can scroll down the page to where it says "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought" to see similar books to review.  Kind of like the Cliff Notes of current events!
