We need more American exportation, but do you think there will there be enviromental issues in America if we have more factories?

[uushia]

Yes, people need to buy American but reason they don't is because of money. many can't think of where to buy outside of supermarkets. Do you know where the local butcher and baker, much less do the research on your detergent. No one will bring back the factories until your dollars start going there. I can only think of one company that bought out another and closed all foreign factories. Expensive product as well.

America is in a big financial crisis because Big Corporations are sending jobs overseas ... Who buys American made products ???? WHO ??? Exactly .... Not until we bring back the factories & build, sell, & buy American made products will this country start to get back on it's feet ....

So, Felix Salmon, if I purposely leave several burning candles at home and stand outside as the house ALMOST burns to the ground, then I call the fire department - Am I a hero??

[ocsspot]

Sorry, Carol Roth .... The Government/The Fed are the enablers.
