This year I hope many of you think about the power of consumer choice. First, try to buy goods locally made. If you cannot find any, try to buy goods made in the United States. Your purchases will support American workers and farmers. Second, spread the word. Buying America creates jobs.
From Infonomics: I sympathize with your message and I will try to adhere but I fear that battle was lost many years ago. If the Chinese are as clever as I think they are, they will effectively disguise the origin and maker of their products.
Americans need to be more creative than resorting to these old 20th industries anyway. For example, what about the manufacture of modular, impromtu housing for the 1 billion Chinese? Just a thought.
