The big corporations manufacture all of their good overseas right!? Why not buy Purely American Made products that are made by American workers? You can find Earth Friendly products made from recycled materials at www.AmericanProductionGroup.com Just a thought...
Free-trade pacts kill jobs and labor rights -

Toyota has at least 8 plants here on US soil and buys from thousands of US based suppliers. WWUD?
Made in America, first in quality. I have been attempting to buy masde in America as often as possible and have been pleasantly surprised at the availability and quality of products.
Right on, Dale, that's one of the ways to do it.
This is one of the main focus' of the Medford Oregon Occupy group. We have come to believe it is necessary to start with local issues in order to effect immediate change. We do have an advantage because we are a smaller community surrounded by rural areas, however, the Buy American Made products is a good solution for those who must work within a massive city's infrastructure.
They have a Fan page on Facebook too. I made sure to "Like" it! www.facebook.com/americanproductiongroup There should be more companies like them. They are trying to do the right thing for America!
It's absolutely disgusting that no matter what you buy there seems to be a "made in China" sticker on it. I am in favor of tariffs on countries like China that artificially keep their currency rates low.
I bought some pet supplies from them just the other day and there were no "Made in China" stickers. There was a giant sticker on it though... It said, "Made In The U.S.A."! They won't sell anything that isn't Purely American Made right down to the packaging.
A rarity and refreshing. Given the choice I pay more for made in the USA. It's shocking how little of those products there are left on the market.
