Ahhhhh, but how do we do that when made in China has become so ubiquitous?

I agree, Jack, but I think the problem has gotten to the point that the only way is to convince the producers to begin producing here, again. Simply refusing to buy Chinese made goods won't work, in all too many cases "Made in China" is the only choice you have left.

You're absolutely right, fixing the economy does start at the bottom, with jobs. And, I would add; Jobs that actually pay well enough for people to afford to consume durable goods...........cars, homes, appliances, furniture, etc., etc..........

Now, try to tell that to the folks who refuse to hire unless they see that rise in demand first and bitch that the minimum wage is too much.

Good luck with that.

Dave
