Yes, but, laddo: In response to the second section of your post: the facts that a) Americans (and most other people) are bargain-hunters, and b) that companies ship jobs abroad to bottom-level-wage Third World countries to make higher profits - or indeed to make ANY profit, in the case of scenario a), if they’re selling stack-em-high products, like WalMart.... THOSE are all features of CAPITALISM, the economic system you so obviously and enthusiastically espouse. NO amount of talking about "buying American" will do anything to improve matters. That’s what you vote for; that’s what you’re stuck with.
