Support America, Support our Troops, buy
"Made in the USA"
As I watched the war unfolding, beginning with the UN debates, it became
even more clear to me that we as American workers and consumers, MUST take a
STAND and fight even harder for our jobs and our way of life. Every Country
has the right to voice their opinion, but to the extent some did made this
lady very angry. You always expect the Asian and Middle east countries to
protest anything the United States does, but when I see the people of Mexico
burning our Flag in the streets where most of our jobs went , that was too
much.
Over 500,000 Americans have lost their good paying jobs to all these
countries who according to our Government was supposed to help them improve
their way of life, but didn't. We have already paid the price by losing our
homes , health insurance, cars and college education for our children. All
these countries who turn their backs on the US depend on and enjoy our lost
jobs given to them by American Companies and our Governments Free Trade
Agreements. And now our young men and women are on the battlefields, risking
and giving up their lives for them as well.
We have heard a lot of talk about boycotting products and companies from
France and Germany, but I have heard little about products "Made in China"
or Vietnam, India, Pakistan, Turkey, Russia, Indoesia, Mexico, etc.etc. Why
not?
These are the countries where our jobs went. Not buying products made in
these countries will secure the future for American workers and their
families. This is how we bring those jobs back to the USA. If WE THE PEOPLE
create the Market for "Made in the USA", they WILL come.
The best way to show support for our Troops is by buying products made in
America by Americans, thus securing our economy and making life better for
all Americans. When we send Care packages to our soldiers, make sure the
products they get say "Made in the USA." They see enough missiles being shot
at them that say "Made in China".
In order to keep America Strong lets make a tough stand and tell our
retailers we insist on, demand and want "Made in the USA". Give us our jobs
back and we will spend our paycheck on American made products and keep our
economy growing.
Send this message loud and clear to all "SUPPORT AMERICA, SUPPORT OUR
TROOPS, BUY "MADE IN THE USA".
