I used to like made in USA better, because our business community still had some ethics then, and so the products were nearly always better. Now, an American car cannot hold a candle to a Toyota, because this has completely turned around. And, it is getting very difficult to find something that is actually made in the USA as most of the companies and jobs have gone overseas. One of the big reasons, also, that our products were so good, was the were made by American workers. Now if a company wants to make something, they do it overseas, screwing the American worker, and then they sell it to the American worker at Walmart, for that is the only place they can afford to shop!

what does having pride have to do with the label made in china on the things you buy . you probably have used products with these labels any ways. as you can tell there isn't much things made in the us any more. big companies actually go to CHINA and produce these products. that's just what they specialize in producing and exporting goods . Africa supplies the US with mostly all of the diamonds .I know people love diamonds how our they to say i have to much pride to buy stuff from another country. now that's just hypocritical. i have much pride in my county but that doesn't mean i can use products made in other countries. it doesn't really matter where its made as long as its making my life that much easier.

Well considering all the Wal-Mart shoppers in America. I think Americans prefer made in China.
but it is not prefer it is what fits in most people's budgets. Just like like workers wal-mart and other big companies hire overseas get paid more than their native bosses would/do, it fits their budget. Or shall I say helps their budget(s).

Unlike the participant Gary F (coolaid drinker) I prefer made in the U.S.A. because I still have pride in being an American, and do my best everyday at work to fullfill the time honored tradition of making the best in the word, PERIOD.

Made in the USA. It means that a man or woman in the US has a job and by me buying their product, they will hopefully keep their job.

made in USA because i know it was made in the country i live in, it made someones job a tiny bit more important/appreciated and less likely to get sent overseas, and it helped the deficit.
opposed to made in china it adds to our foreign debt, it allows them to pay their workers WAY lower than minimum wage that they took from USA anyways.

‘Made in the USA might not mean what you think it does. And it may not have occurred to you that it involves slave labor and the sex trade business. Republicans, led by Tom DeLay (now unofficially), have been trying for years to do away with America’s child protection laws at home.
DeLay’s idea is to use Mexican immigrant labor in America the same way that Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein, Target and the Gap exploit women on the US Protectorate island of Saipan to produce clothing bearing the “Made in the USA” label.
Delay has praised Saipan as a model for capitalists everywhere. And, here is where the pathologically lying and hypocritical republican politicians are at their best. If a woman working in one of these sweatshops becomes pregnant, she is given the option of having an abortion or losing her job.
That’s right. These ‘exploiters of the Christian right for votes’, ‘we are pro-life and family values’ scum are supporting ‘forced abortion’ policies in real life. As these women have no escape (they owe money to the people who brought them there with promises of obtaining good jobs in America), if they refuse to have abortions and lose their jobs, they are forced (some as young as 13) into the sex business on the island. Maybe that is why DeLay used to love to vacation there with all his lobbyist buddies.

I'll gladly pay more for an American made product. You get better quality and keep the money at home
