2002 Best Home Sales in
Nations History
The Nation’s housing sector
booms to record levels, while the rest of the economy is weak. Why is this
happening? One of the answers is that Americans are buying houses stuffed
with and even made of IMPORTS.
Sale of a new home is supposed to give additional economic growth by sales
of other USA made products which allows U.S. company’s to expand, hire more
workers and pay higher wages. Thus the cycle of these workers buys more
American products so on and so on.
But that is not happening, manufacturing is way behind. When we furnish
those homes with imports from foreign countries-New Revenues, investments,
jobs and wage increases go to workers and companies off shore not at home.
Every import we buy is a lost opportunity to stimulate the U.S, economy.
Prime example is Household Furniture Industry. In the last 4 years, domestic
furniture makers share of U.S. market dropped from 81.1% to 72.3% and 2002
was even more. Home appliance market share is probably around 52% or below.
Domestic timber producers and clay building makers saw their U.S. market
share dive by 10%.
WHAT’S the ANSWER? Only one, BUY MADE in the U.S.A. We the people are the
only ones who can change things. We have the LAST SAY at the Cash Register
by Insisting On American Made Products in whatever we buy.
