Restore US Manufacturing
Are you willing to pay a little more $$ to ensure that the products we use are safe? If it costs more to employ a US employee to do what 3 foreign workers can do for less, are you willing to restore (i.e. pay more) our USA Made Production

YES I AM, I'm tired of everything breaking in my hand soon after I buy it, someone gave my new born a blanket, I found that the Rayon stitching was falling off, a piece of it wrapped around my daughters finger so badly that it had swollen up, and had to be removed by the Dr. at the Hospital (it was like fishing line), the hospital took the blanket and said that a re-call had to be issued, the Dr. turned over the label on the blanket and said "Made in China, more CRAP that can hurt children, they don't care".

Well if you'd notice.Those products made overseas with the claim that they'd be cheaper for the consumer are'nt.And prices are on the rise.
I think every owner and CEO of companies that have pushed to move their factories out of this country should be banished from this country as a traitor.Tese people have gone far out of their way to break the spirit of the working man and woman in the USA.Their greed has destroyed this country.Lots of folks saw it and tried to get everyone involved so folks would put pressure on their senators and reps on the state and federal levels to keep our factories here, but everyone was too busy,too tired or too lazy to get involved.So now we're stuck.And we'll continue to be stuck until enough pressure is applied so that the laws will again be changed to stop the migration of what's left of American manufacturers.
I feel that it won't be long before the foreign workers unite and form their own unions and demand better pay and working conditions and we'll have to pay evan more to compensate.

If each of us made the decision to not purchase anything made in a foreign country, the problem would be solved.

We all like to complain but many are unwilling to put their words into actions.

Personally, I don't buy ANYTHING made in China. Is it hard sometimes? Sure. Do I pay more for something sometimes? Sure. But it is worth it.

The apathetic American will simply continue to moan and gripe and continue their ways.....

Vote for me for world dominator, because if you don't support me, you are against me, and I will crush you with my iron fist of tyrannical insanity.

When I conquer the universe, I will use strategic oppression. I will force an ideal economy to thrive. No longer will you buy cheaply made crap from halfway across the globe because the company is greedy.

Instead, you will pay homage to my awesome wrath and cower in fear of my anger. However, in so doing I will ensure that all facilities in every corner of the globe are the highest quality possible. I will force all scientific and engineering minds to usher us into a new era of technology and convenience that spans across the entire planet, thereby causing there to be only 1 choice when you buy any goods: The best.

Those who would dare defy me would of course be destroyed like the insignificant whelps they are by my army of robot minions, however those who obey without question will have it quite nice.

Some laws you can expect to see under my rule:

Commercials have to make sense and not be confusing. This will stop those dumb commercials that make you wonder WTF is going on.
Lawyers don't get paid unless they win the case in court. This will stop people from idiotic crap like suing McDonalds for making them fat, etc.
Making/using spyware, annoying pop-up ads, viruses, etc. will be considered a felony.
The DMV will only get paid for the number of people they actually help in a day.
Han shot first. STFU.
I am the Master, and you will obey me.

Failure to comply with any given law will of course mean death if I'm annoyed enough by the futile attempt to defy me, otherwise the rest of your life will be living Hell, etc.

However, it will be good. Equality will be realized, as you will ALL be worthless peons beneath me. Absolute power will be mine, so bribery and sweet-talking will be useless attempts at getting me to favor you against someone else just because you're richer, etc.

So vote for me... Or else. MUAHAHA!
