The problem with "buying American" sadly is most of the components are made in China. Like power tools - if it has an electric motor, in almost every circumstance, it was made in China, because they're THE leading manufacturer of them. "Made In America" sadly now just means "assembled".
Same for any electronics, almost all components and chips are made in China now.
Right. My dad works in the security and fire systems industry, and everything, every part, is usually made and shipped from China. He hates it so much.
They can only fund all that manufacturing because of the cheap ass plastic shit they shovel out at a 10000% markup on government assistance. Pull that rug out from under them and the rest of the dominoes will fall into a hole in one. I'm not good with analogies.
If American markets were free to compete within for American companies, we'd almost always have the highest quality products at the lowest prices.
Politicians and their pet bureaucrats have ensured it isn't so by appearing to be concerned for activism and public interest, when we can be sure that foreign influence is the real cause.
Clean up the swamp and America will be a capitalist and consumer paradise, something it was admired for in the past.
I can't even put "made in America" on my product line and sell it on Amazon without a government verification form. I cant the form approved because there is a period on my business name that is different than on another form. I've tried to get this corrected for six months and finally gave up. Still cant tell people I'm made in America, if I do my listing are removed instantly by bots.
I bought a US made cast iron pan. Only about 10% more than the chicom one. Note: never put anything made in 'gina into your body.
And my Betsy Ross flag is US made. Beautiful stars sewn on a deep blue, and red and white stripes sewn together - none of the silk screen chicom crap. It did cost $45- verses $12- or so for the slave made one, but the one I have is rated for outdoor use in stormy weather. No comparison at all for something that will last for years.
I want to start an online store that is USA only, to blow out Amazon. Only USA sellers, of USA products.
I will then have a feature for local brick and mortars to put their inventory on the site and allow local pick-up.
I can't stress this enough. The products costs more but by and large they last a lot longer. Socks, dish towels, sheets...everything I buy made in the US last longer. I wanted to buy a Speed Queen washer but wife didn't want it. She now regrets it. Hard to do, most things are not made here but do what you can.

"American" products are also largely made in China; and made very cheaply.
Until manufacturing is brought back, in full force, it is impossible to buy strictly American.
Can I just buy Japanese? They don't cut corners as much as American companies do.

Same reasons you need to abandon Amazon. You have no idea what you are giving away long-term for short-term convenience.
Also, you don't get as rich as Bezos if you aren't selling this country out. One of the tentacles of the NWO.
I own a Japanese truck that was assembled in Texas, is that good enough?
and "I own a Japanese truck that was assembled in' Alabama. thus I KNOW what truck we both drive!

These companies, in conjunction with the Politicians have ruined the middle class.
