When was the last time you sought out goods made in American and knowingly paid more for them ?

Also, who do you think is paying all those tariffs? We are, the consumer.

Don’t blame China or the rest of the world, they are just filling a need.
We should blame the poor US public school system (keeping property taxes down for the benefit of large property owners). Also to blame is the US healthcare system controlled by insurance executives and NOT Medical Doctors.
