well over 50 yrs ago I knew a lady who would not buy Christmas gifts if they were made in China. Her daughter will recognize her in the following.Did y'all see that Diane Sawyer has a special report coming up this week.They removed ALL items from a typical, middle class family's home that werenot made in the USA .There was hardly anything left besides the kitchen sink. Literally. Duringthe special they are going to show truckloads of items - USA made - beingbrought in to replace everything and will be talking about how to find theseitems and the difference in price etc..It was interesting that Diane said that if every American spent just $64more than normal on USA made items this year, it would create something like200,000 new jobs!I WAS BUYING FOOD THE OTHER DAY AT WALMART and ON THE LABEL OF SOME PRODUCTSIT SAID 'FROM CHINA 'FOR EXAMPLE THE "OUR FAMILY" BRAND OF THE MANDARIN ORANGES SAYS RIGHT ON THECAN 'FROM CHINA 'I WAS SHOCKED SO FOR A FEW MORE CENTS I BOUGHT THE LIBERTY GOLD BRAND OR THEDOLE SINCE IT'S FROM CALIF.Are we Americans as dumb as we appear --- or --- is it that we just do notthink while the Chinese, knowingly and intentionally, export inferior andeven toxic products and dangerous toys to hurt our children and goods to be sold in Americanmarkets? Killed over a thousand of our beloved (pets) cats and dogs.70% of Americans believe that the trading privileges afforded to the Chineseshould be suspended.Why do you need the government to suspend trading privileges? DO ITYOURSELF, AMERICA !!Simply look on the bottom of every product you buy, and if it says 'Made inChina ' or 'PRC' (and that now includes Hong Kong ), simply choose anotherproduct, or none at all. You will be amazed at how dependent you are onChinese products, and you will be equally amazed at what you can do without.Who needs plastic eggs to celebrate Easter? If you must have eggs, use realones and benefit some American farmer. Easter is just an example. The pointis do not wait for the government to act. Just go ahead and assume controlon your own.THINK ABOUT THIS: If 200 million Americans refuse to buy just $20 each ofChinese goods, that's a billion dollar trade imbalance resolved in ourfavor...fast!!Most of the people who have been reading about this matter are planning onimplementing this on MAY 1st and continue it until JUNE 1st. That is onlyone month of trading losses, but it will hit the Chinese for 1/12th of thetotal, or 8%, of their American exports. Then they might have to askthemselves if the benefits of their arrogance andlawlessness were worth it.Remember, MAY 1 TO JUNE 1st !!!!!!START NOW.Send this to everybody you know. Let's show them that we are Americans andNOBODY can take us for granted.If we can't live without cheap Chinese goods for one month out of our lives,WE DESERVE WHAT WE GET!Pass it on, America .
