ParticipantJust look at this discussion and place your family in the role of America. Can you send more money (than you make) out to other families continously and survive? Sure saving a few dollars here and there will enable you to keep it up a little longer, but you will still end up broke if you send out more than you keep or take in. (yes this is over-simplifying but a good exercise in comprehension of the problems)
We send gazzilions to other countries, non-stop. The effects are obvious and the end game is setting in.
We can debate it until we are blue in the face, but reality is we have to find a way to stop sending our money and jobs to other countries. We can’t just keep growing the debt indeffinately, hoping something other than good old fashion “making things we consume and spend money on” will turn the deficits around and create enough real jobs.

Participant[quote=jpinpb]nost – LOL. That’s what I had was a GT 5.0. Not a T-top, though. I think it was an SVU. Scratching grey mater here.
In any case, we are going a little OT. I challenge you guys for a month to buy American, or at least not Chinese. As the first reply posted, good luck. But try![/quote]
It’s a great plan. But let’s not stop at small ticket items. If consumers show a preference for US made products then industry will evolve to meet that need.

ParticipantI have found that lots of folks, once they choose the dark side and jump over to supporting foriegn brands, they embark on a quest to justify thier decision. One way they attempt to do that is to make absurd over-statements………

I don’t want lots of money to be kept in America. I want it to go away. The dollar may be stronger this way. .[/quote]ParticipantI have found that lots of folks, once they choose the dark side and jump over to supporting foriegn brands, they embark on a quest to justify thier decision.
