American Made and American Proud

Patriotic symbols reach from California to the New York Island. Americans eat apple pie, sing the national anthem at baseball games, and visit the Statue of Liberty. But buying products that are “Made in America” may be the most impactful act of patriotism, just ahead of eating apple pie. People can demonstrate their pride in America thru the choices they make as consumers. Some favor Ford and GM over Toyota or shop at American Apparel, the trendy clothing company with all operations in Los Angeles. But most people underestimate the value of their buying decisions and how they can affect the nation’s economy and future.

One sector increasingly affected by the “Made in USA” mantra is domestic manufacturing, especially with the outsourcing of jobs to China, India, and other countries. Intense competition drives down product prices, while American manufacturers balance higher operating expenses including labor and health care. In fact, manufacturing jobs typically pay 23 percent more than other economic sectors, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. This contributes to the higher price tag of doing business in the United States.
