Buy American & Buy USA

* Written By: Unions Admin, Cindy Maddy
* 9/17/2009
* Categorized in: American Made Products

The solution is too simple. The American people need to start requiring the government, that works for us, when using our money to purchase all goods and services bought on our behalf, to be only from United States sources. That is what our founding fathers wanted.

The concept that they are saving us money by buying off-shore is bogus, as the jobs lost and subsequent lost income will eliminate the ability for us to buy American made products. This can only exacerbate the increased unemployment, and cause company bankruptcy. Don't be fooled, their intention is to grab more power by making us all poor, and by controlling more big business.

The greed of us all wanting lower prices is also cutting our own throats in the process. The government and businesses, as well as the consumer has forgotten what made this country the greatest in history. To just flush it all away, and end up just another poor socialist country is a tremendous waste of our divinely enspired founding fathers vision, and the lives of all those that fought and died to keep us a free nation and a great Republic. --JB
