I don't have a magnet on my car, but I do send troops in Iraq stuff. I think it's what you do, and not what you advertise, that supports the troops.

It depends on who you are buying it from. If it is a charity that sends packages to the troops then sure the money does go to supporting the troops, but if it's in the dollar store then probably not. Plus I doubt those magnets cost very much anyway so it's not like a lot of money is being raised with them.

Generally not unless you're buying it as part of a fund-raiser for an FRG group or something else directly military related. If you really want to support your troops, sign up to adopt a soldier, or donate money to groups that do care packages and things like that. The sticker on your car doesn't mean a whole lot in the grander scheme of things. It usually just means you're trying to impress someone.

I was given one at church, then it was stolen off my car. Valuable to someone eh? The donor of the magnets was an officer in one of the branches of the military.

If you look at the back, you will undoubtedly see a "Made in Taiwan" sticker on it, so all the money goes to sweat shop owners in Taiwan (ROC).

i dont think we really care who has a magnet on their car or who doesnt.....it has become so cliche....so why not save your money and find another way to support us.....fly a flag in your front yard :)

Of course not....don't be silly.
They are made in a factory in COMMUNIST CHINA.
The money goes into some Chinese factory owners pocket.
