When you go shopping, whether it’s for a gift, or something for your home, or anything, do you stop to see if you are buying American?
With unemployment still a concern for many, and a terrible reality for others, it’s up to us, the American consumers, to do our part to help keep citizens of our United States of America employed.
Earlier generations helped our country by buying American. It’s a patriotic thing to do.
You may have to search a little harder, drive a little further, place a mail order, or pay a little more for a quality, American made item or service, but you are helping your neighbors and your country.
As professional Jacksonville copywriter Cindy Cyr, said in 2011 about buying gifts made in America , “If each person spent just $64 a year more on Made in America products, we would add 200,000 jobs here.” That sounds good to me. Think of all the good it could do in 2021!
Easy to do! Just Search on Amazon: Made in America Gifts! You get the idea.
Please do your part for your friends and neighbors, for your country, and for yourself; buy American.
Thank you.
