Shop American

Most people make a list of the things they need when they go shopping and I always encourage people to look at labels before they make a purchase. People who support the Buy American Made Challenge often tell me that it’s been an eye-opening experience because it’s hard to find American-made products and they want that to change.

As we all can see due to decades of outsourcing manufacturing to foreign countries, many jobs have left the United States permanently. In many cases, those businesses have now been sold to foreign investors so they have no desire to return to the United States. This simply means Americans will continue to be consumers of those foreign-made products, but not manufacturers. 

Here are a few simple ideas that would help change our future and restore jobs in America, however it will require American investors and America’s national elected leaders to do the following:

• National leaders must approve long-term tax incentives for businesses to encourage them to expand or return to the United States. It’s important to make America the best place to do business now and in the future.

• Offer incentives for America’s businesses to invent new products with new brand names and make those products in the United States.

• Expand and restore trade and technology programs in America’s schools so there are always individuals graduating with the skills needed by America’s businesses.

• Mandate that businesses and government work together on a regular basis for the well-being of our fellow Americans.

When we look back at America’s industrial history, we see that America was a major inventor and producer of products for over 100 years. After 35 years of allowing outsourcing of manufacturing and jobs, it’s time for us to unite to reverse the trend of the past and ensure that competitive production of all products we use, from electronics and clothing, to everyday household items, are made in America again. If everyone works together, positive changes will happen in our lifetime. 

Your participation is very important. Kindly spread the word to your family and friends.

Sick society

Doctors raise concerns about Trump’s weight gain …

Doctors raise concern about Trump’s swollen ankles and bruises on his hands …

No wonder Donald Trump calls the news media “fake news,” because there’s absolutely no intelligent analysis on the decline of our country.

A 7-year-old boy was picking out candy at a Walmart, when a deranged stranger slashed him from behind.

An off-duty police captain and her partner allegedly left their 2-year-old child locked in a sweltering hot car, while the two of them went fishing.

A Wyoming mom says it was “worth it” to kidnap and shoot her 11-month-old son in the face, just so the dad can’t get custody.

Then we have a frustrated Missouri dad who fatally shook his 1-month-old son because he wouldn’t stop crying. A newborn has not yet mastered the English language to understand you, you moron.

And of course we have the infamous trial of Lindsay Clancy murder case involved in killing her 3 children.

Well, we have finally went full circle to finally become the new Sodom and Gomorrah, a sick society that’s sick in the head.
