Jasmine, hello. Jasmine American made products are usually better than foreign made. There are some things made out of the country that are good. Like my Nikon camera and lenses. I find it hard to find shoes and clothes made in America, but we do have some. I think it is hard to find a car better than a Cadillac if you want a luxury car. I prefer trucks myself. I have a GMC Canyon at this time. The leather interior and all the electronics it is hard to believe it is a truck. It rides good, has a six cylinder engine, and gets 21 or more miles to the gallon on the highway, 18 and 19 in the city. Speedometer goes to 140MPH. No I haven’t gone much over 80 to get on the highway and then set the speed 75 just 5 over the speed limit. Two passengers in front, three in back, comfortable. No snow in Florida, but I have 4 wheel drive if I want to use it. Hey, Archie! I know America makes some great products. My point is that I will not limit my options merely for the sake of “buying American.” In fact, when I purchase something, I don’t check to see where it was made. All that matters to me is, “Is it a great product?” and “Am I willing to pay this price?” I use a few things not made here. Who makes our cell phones? |

No, manufacturing took a huge hit in the Republican Bush recession, and Obama brought it back. Trump merely continued the recovery that started under Obama, but Trump's ill conceived trade wars have hurt our manufacturing sector.
Yeah right, .. Obongo fixed the economy!  |
