Now let me just say, if they started selling only American made products they’d be out of business in about 3 months. All their customers would move over to CheapMart.
I think you’re right.
With one proviso:
Currently America has no national “buy American” policy, so anyone who attempts one will be crushed by foreign competition.
America appears to be the only country with this sort of suicidal “buy stuff from everywhere but here” policy. China for example is CRUSHING American companies, and by some accounts now exports more than America.
And is growing.
We need our government behind a “buy American” movement.
Every other country in the world buys their own stuff.
Why is America alone, selling off our own best assets?
Buy American.
If the clients at our local walmart are any indication, if you wanted to sell “home-town” stuff, you’d have to import it all from Mexico.
