Buying American

I recently heard an interview with Todd Lipscomb, the man who started the website www.madeinusaforever.com several years ago. I didn't know anything about it, but after perusing the website, I'm sold. If you're like me, you're tired of buying poorly made toys, clothes and small appliances that are either completely or partially made in a foreign country. And if you're like me, you realize how critical it is to buy American, for many reasons. Todd has a new book out called Re-Made in the USA, where he answers alot of questions about the trade deficit and the importance of buying American made products.

Go to the website and check it out. They have over 2900 products listed on their website, from toys and games, to kitchen utensils, to health and skin products. And clothes. They have everything from jackets, sweathers, hats, tee shirts, jeans, shoes and so much more. They also offer gift certificates if you want to give a gift to someone who you know would appreciate and American made item but aren't sure what to get.

Here's just another way we can all do our part to help our country move in the right direction. Buying American is something I think we can all agree is a good thing.
