FYI - Let's do this!

Seems as though in trying to save money, we've outsourced ourselves right out 
of the working market, hence the rise in unemployment/joblessness. Then who 
supports these folks on the dole?  Look in the mirror.  Have we truly saved 
anything? .............J




Perhaps this can help US?!

Did you all see the Diane Sawyer Special Report on 'Made in China ' or 'PRC'

They removed ALL items from a typical, middleclass family's home, that were not 
made in the USA .
There was hardly anything left besides the kitchen sink. Literally.  During the 
special they are going
To show truckloads of items - USA made - being brought in to replace everything.

And will be talking about how to find these items and the difference in price 
etc. It was interesting
That Diane said that if every American spent just $64 (more than normal) on USA 
made items this year,
It would create something like 200,000 new jobs.  Made ME think!

Check the Can

I WAS BUYING FOOD THE OTHER DAY AT WALMART.  ON THE LABEL OF SOME PRODUCTS IT 
SAID 'FROM CHINA '.
FOR EXAMPLE THE "OUR FAMILY" BRAND OF THE MANDARIN ORANGES SAYS RIGHT ON THE 
CAN 'FROM CHINA '.

I WAS SHOCKED!! SO FOR A FEW MORE CENTS I BOUGHT THE LIBERTY GOLD BRAND OR THE 
DOLE SINCE IT'S FROM CALIF.
TAKES FOREVER JUST TO BUY FOOD AND DO LABEL READING ! !

Are we Americans as dumb as we appear --- or --- is it that we just do not 
think? While the Chinese,
Knowingly and intentionally, export inferior and even toxic products and 
dangerous toys and goods to be
Sold in American markets.  Yet 70% of Americans believe that the trading 
privileges afforded to the Chinese
Should be suspended.

Well, duh..why do you need the government to suspend trading privileges? SIMPLY 
DO IT YOURSELF, AMERICA !!

Simply look on the bottom of every product you buy, and if it says 'Made in 
China ' or 'PRC' (and that now includes
Hong Kong ), simply choose another product, or none at all. You will be amazed 
at how dependent you are on
Chinese products, and you will be equally amazed at what you can do without.

Who needs plastic eggs to celebrate Easter? If you must have eggs, use real 
ones and benefit some American farmer. Easter is just an example.
The point is do not wait for the government to act. Just go ahead and assume 
control on your own.

THINK ABOUT THIS:

If 200 million Americans refuse to buy just $20 each of Chinese goods, that's a 
billion dollar trade imbalance resolved in our favor...fast!!

The downside? Some American businesses will feel a temporary pinch from having 
Foreign stockpiles of inventory. Wahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

The solution?  Let's give them fair warning and send our own message. Most of 
the people who have been reading about this matter are planning on implementing 
this on April 1 and continue it until May 1st  That is only one month of 
trading losses, but it will hit the Chinese for 1/12th of the total, or 8%, of 
their American exports. Then they will at least have to ask themselves if the 
benefits of their arrogance and lawlessness were worth it.

Remember, APRIL 1ST TO MAY 1ST. (Maybe since I am just sending this to everyone 
- we can start it from now (20 Apr-20 May 2011).

START NOW.
Send this to everybody you know. Let's show them that we are Americans and 
NOBODY can take us for granted.

If we can't live without cheap Chinese goods for one month out of our lives, WE 
DESERVE WHAT WE GET!

Pass it on, America . . .
