Made in America

After buying a pair of Levi 501’s that I have been having all sort of problems with, I did some research and discovered that Levi’s have not been made in America for a long time.

That got me thinking about the quality of these jeans and I realized that they just don’t last anywhere as long as when I used to buy them.

My research got me thinking about how many companies have outsourced their manufacturing and I was shocked. I guess I should not have been, but wow!

I have decided that I am going to make a conscious attempt to stop buying products that are not made in the USA. There is a great site that lists products made in the USA. http://www.onlyamericanmadehere.com/.

With so many people out of work in this country, the best thing you can do is keep your money in the USA and not support companies that outsource their jobs.

Please think twice when buying items. Look for an American made product first. I am willing to pay a little more money to keep a countryman/woman working.
