Remember that just because a product is made in the U.S. does not mean that it is American owned. As an example; Budweiser is owned by China and Coors is owned by a South African company, you may be surprised to know how many beers are made by Anheiser-Busch and the money is then sent to China. drinkamerican.us is an excellent resource on the beer topic, but there are other products that follow this trend. Having Americans produce a product is important for creating American jobs, but it cannot end there, the money needs to also go to an American company for our economy to receive the full benefit of our spent dollar.
The U.S. is a capitalist country, we vote with our dollar. Please vote America next time you pull out your wallet.
