Competitive products restore jobs
For years, we have been discussing at length the importance of reviving manufacturing in America. Many products continue to bear the names of American corporations, but we need to restore no less than 50% of everything now sold in America with an American-made label once again.
It is clear that a growing number of Americans are shopping with the intent of looking at labels and asking for American-made products. After considerable research, we find that for the price we are paying now for items with foreign-made labels, we could be purchasing a competitive American-made product for the same cost. This would allow us to get more Americans employed again. Our research also indicates that one of the major difficulties in restoring America’s industries is that business owners and investors have focused on huge profits derived from foreign labor on products that are able to be sold in America for larger profits.
What is very interesting is that foreign producers are seeing for themselves that America’s importers are making a lot more money than the businesses and people being employed in foreign countries. As a result foreign producers continue to raise the cost of their products to America’s importers, which raises the cost to America’s consumers.
Inflation and the rising prices for foreign products has increased the willingness of America’s businesses to bring back production of their products to the United States, which would expand the American-made label and employ people in the country where we live.
Kindly continue to spread the word about the Buy American Made Campaign and don’t hesitate to send me your comments and suggestions to Michael@AmericanWorkersRadio.com.

Trump not so Wonderful
A letter in your Aug. 19 paper giddily suggests an update of It’s a Wonderful Life entitled Mr. Trump Goes to Washington, in which “a private citizen … goes to D.C. intent on reform for the people.”
Now hold on a sec. Who?
The guy who has personally enriched himself in office by $2.2 billion in the past year alone? The guy convicted of 34 felonies? The guy who has started an endless war in Iran in which he has declared on multiple occasions that the U.S. has won total victory? The guy whose aforementioned war has cost billions of dollars? The guy who alone is responsible for the Iranian stranglehold on the Strait of Hormuz? The guy who is obsessed with billion-dollar ballrooms and other such vanity projects? The guy who has sicced the Justice Department and FBI on his perceived enemies? The guy who snubs his nose at NATO and our allies whilst cozying up to the world’s dictators? The guy who has snatched health benefits away from our people while at the same time driving up prices of groceries and gas? The guy who has imposed tariffs paid for by our citizens? The guy who savages our First Amendment rights left and right?
A “reformer”? Him?
Alas, poor fellow citizens, we know him all too well. Hail to the chief?
