Made in America
This has been a wonderful continuing series on the ABC Nightly news. One of the first shows provided an eye-opening look at how many of our common household goods are made outside of the U.S. Here is a link to a map and websites that show how you can locate products made in America. You are able to submit the names of companies to add - my contribution will be Bear Wallow gloves - the best gloves I have found.

If I can find it made in America I buy it no matter how much more it cost. After all it is my brothers and sisters who I'm supporting when I do.

5. Me too! I also like the possibility of a better feedback loop between buyer & seller, more response
to our desires in product development and service.
