I think the point is that the reason most Americans buy foriegn made stuff is because one: we don't have much option anymore and two: that reason for number one is the gov has made it too hard on small business' in America to thrive with all the rules, regs, labor unions, tax crap, etc... At the end of the day, an american business owner would love to have his stuff manufactured in America, but at the current time it is not a good BUSINESS move to do so. Especially with the ObamaCare junk coming now, it is too hard to make a profit. The gov is the problem.....again Just too many regulations


Do this at Christmas When each person opens a gift, write down where it was made, then after thay are all done count it up.
Had a buddy do that last year and out of 80 gifts only one was made in America....a leather pistol holster made in Texas

I agree that unfortunately the worst enemy of he US is the US itself. Many of the regulations that are put into effect cause calamity down the road that whoever is in office at the time takes the blame for. The housing disaster is a good example as many of the rules and regs the caused that debacle were put in place during the Clinton years. Good example being The Community Reinvestment Act that Banks had to follow and achieve so many points on during exams. There's another name for Community Reinvestment Act mortgage and that's called an ORE credit on genera ledger.

This reminds me of the "Chinese or American flashlight threads" on all the forums lately. Some say they won't buy from China and only buy American, but the thing is.......ALL the lights they're talking about are being made in China. Pay directly to the commies or to the middle man company that then pays the commies, either way it's still going over yonder. Still sucks though.

I worked as a DJ at a radio station in college. The GM made us stop playing Michael Jackson's "Beat It" because he thought it meant self gratification....
