How to bring back jobs to the US
1. Limit purchasing items not made in the US. Look on this site to find a list of companies still making things in the US. www.locateamerican.com Did you know we have a company in the US that makes washing machines and several that make shoes, blankets......the list goes one. But we have these companies long if we don't support them. Even if you don't have money to buy now, you can still help put the word out they exist and ask stores to carry the products.
2. Tell stores to carry these items/products listed in the site above in their stores. If they don't...don't shop there.
3. Pass the word.
4. Demand companies use the everify system.
I am all for free trade but, this has gone too far. When I purcase a can of fruit coctail and the can has "made in China" on it. What's next? We can't sit back and point fingers/blame until it too late. American workers need to step up to the plate and demand that we are given the opportunity to make the products we purchase. At the same we need to demand American companies produce a safe product( remember the peanut butter scare).
