I propose that the people of this country begin our own economic stimulus by paying attention to what we buy. In other words, Buy American!
Beer and wine...
cars, trucks and tires...
pasta, fruits and vegetables...
light bulbs and garden hoses... the list goes on and on.
Visit Florida, California or Hawaii instead of the Caribbean.
Go to Vermont or Colorado instead of Europe.
Spend a week in a cabin in a National Park instead of taking a cruise (all the cruise ships are foreign owned to avoid US taxes).
Why buy imports which employ people in other countries when Americans make the same products and depend on our purchases for their jobs? Consider the jobs that those salaries and taxes support...
The politicians will call this "protectionism". I say it's time for some! It's up to us to save and create jobs right here, right now, by supporting our own country!
