I try to BUY AMERICAN, I really do. It's sad.

Both of my heavily advertised "Heartbeat of America" Chevrolets were made in foreign countries. My Apple computer was made in China. TV's, appliances, cameras, most clothing ... all made in other countries despite my efforts.

I have found good furniture made in the Carolina's, the Michelin tires on my truck are US made. For the most part American consumers daily weaken our economy without thought or choice.
