It is getting harder to find any product really made in America these days. It would be fun to have a label on every product, or some such advantage, so that we could intelligently know and punish companies who do as you say. I'd love to be able to look at the story and if I didn't like what I read, put it back and buy another. You want to start a good net business together?

To me it just makes sense to buy something that was made by American workers, rather than support a company that left the country (traitors). But it is getting harder and harder to find truly American made goods.

I don't think they should if they feel that way.
When Levi's moved to Mexico, they lost me. And Levi's is all I ever wore. I discovered their move when a new pair just didn't feel right, and shrunk in the wash. I looked in the label and saw Made in Mexico. And that's all it took.
But this is a good reason to form a PAC, isn't it?
I also agree with Rachman. The money does come here. But I see both sides of this argument. The government should not be in it, beyond the taxation part.

They are still more loyal than say Japanese companies are to US workers right?
If we repeal Taft-Hartley and get a new Union movement the problem will be solved. In Japan corporate flight (of capital) is punishable by death... Japanese protect thier workers better than the US does.

Well would you rather buy something from a company who makes their products somewhere where there are no labor standards, no pollution standards etc..??
Of course these days, if you buy products made here you really arent sure if it wasnt some illegal that was making the product. Kinda hard to know what your supporting.

How about to support the workers who work for these companies?
When you hurt a company, you usually hurt a worker more.

NO! I strongly help our forces in Iraq and in Afghanistan, they are doing an extremely confusing interest, by ability of every physique's standards, and do i think of that businesses might desire to be boycotted for helping our militia, HELL NO, in fact, they might desire to receive extra tax credit from the government for doing this form of advantageous and staggering subject for our combating forces. continuously remember this: a house divided can no longer stand! The terrorists might like no longer something greater ideal then to ensure the help for our combating troops falter, it truly is what got here approximately throughout the Vietnam conflict, the yankee people did no longer help the conflict attempt, and this performed marvelous into the enemies hand. I totally help our combating troops and that i've got self belief that every physique that doesn't experience this way might desire to heavily evaluate looking yet another u . s . to stay in, different than the sturdy ole u . s ..

The purpose of a company is not to provide jobs. The purpose of a company is to make money.
Do all you libs actually want to work these jobs we are exporting? Or is it just easier to get people to vote democrat when they are stuck in dead-end assembly line type jobs
