We don't? We just rewarded communist China with 'Most Favored Nation' trade status, and their imports are so cheesy that mediocrity would be several steps up for them.
As to your comments about 'rewarding' U.S. made products by buying them for patriotism's sake, even the most patriotic man in America would have a hard time doing that, because we simply don't make much of anything anymore. Even American automobile manufacturers buy their materials and parts from overseas, and have the engines assembled in foreign lands.
Because of this obsession with 'globalism', our nation has become dependent on foreign countries, (dependent even on our enemies like Communist China and Saudi Arabia, whose oil we could completely replace with Alaskan oil). Many a nation's bad intentions were covered under the viel of 'improving the economy', just look to Hitler's 1930's Germany and Stalin's Soviet Union, (the Nazis said ridding themselves of the Jews would help their economy, while communism promised to spread the wealth around to everyone).
Globalism, that bloodless coup that has thrown down autonomous borders, and its twin brother, 'multiculturalism', which has brought Islam to infect every Western nation, promises you that your toys will be cheaper and your lives will be 'enriched'. Meanwhile, all the consumer essentials like food, energy and housing continue to rise out of sight and terrorism threatens every formerly autonomous, free nation.
Manufacturing and producing are what make a nation mighty, and patriotism is what keeps it that way. Just look at post-war Germany and Japan, and our own rise to superpower during and after WWII. Then look at what globalism threatens to do to America, ("soon there won't be any money left to support America's elderly", the warn us; and our national debt will reach the Milky Way before NASA does). Then look at what 'multiculturalism', (Globalism's twin), has done to Western Europe. How stupid can people today be? Is your laptop and automatic coffee maker really all that important?
