[QUOTE="Teddy GreeneII, post: 534560, member: 62328"] Darin, I did miss the posts but at the same time, it's my money and even though of course some of it goes where it goes, I'd rather it stay here even if it is to the corporations. I have to believe that by purchasing American made products its good for Americans. We make security products, before all the trade agreements there where 15 different companies that did what we do. Now there are two. We went from employing 85 people to 30 in the span of 2 years. People that don't care will buy something made in China for $1.10 instead of paying $1.32 to buy American. It's their money and they can do with it what they want. I know its a loosing battle these days but I don't see the point in sending my money to Japan. Im not trying to soap box it, but after having to let go people that have worked for us and fed our family for 12-15 years, it tends to jade your "global consience" a little bit. [/QUOTE]
