Do you try to buy American made products?
Do you still buy American even if they American made products don't offer exactly what you are looking for? Do you buy American products even if you feel the quaility may be inferior to a similar foreign made product (I'm not saying it is...)? Do you buy American if the quality is approximately the same as a foreign product, but the price is a little higher?
For instance: I bought a bicycle this year. I decided to buy an American frame because I felt that I could get all the same quality. I finally decided on a LeMonde frame (sounds French, but its not...) and paid a little more than I would for other "comparable" frames. I love the bike and am completely happy with it.
Another: I bought a Mazda Miata because American car companies didn't offer exactly what I was looking for and I didn't want to compromise (4 cyl, 2 seat, IRS, light, economy, convert.)
NOTE: I understand that its hard to tell these days with the global economy. I'm talking about a good faith effort.
Answer:
My husband and I only will buy American cars, I havent run into a problem of them not offering features that I want though. But especially with the car industry I believe its best to support American workers.
I am not sure on other products though, that I have seen things amde in the US, most everything is made in some Asian country it seems. However, if I ever found an item made in America and had the choice of buying it or a foreign product, it wouldnt matter the price I would buy the American version.
I buy something of good quality and reasonable price no matter where it is manufactured.
It doesn't matter. Go with quality, you never know who actually owns what without checking... Mazda for instance:
Buy globally, every countries economy deserves to flourish.
not any more
no, i couldn't care less if its American or not. However, i do look out for Fairtrade logo, and when possible, support poorer countries as they are the once that do really need help.
