Top 10 Reasons To Buy Products Made In The USA

Market researchers have analyzed reader behavior and apparently, people are drawn to lists like the "Top 10 Cities to Raise a Family" or the "Top 5 Companies for MBA Graduates" or the "Top 10 Business Friendly States" or "The 10 Most Beautiful People" or even the "Top 10 Top 10 Lists of All Time"....In short, folks of all ages and backgrounds like to see how things stack up.  And their downloads and click-throughs prove this empirically.


So with the above in mind and inspiration from the Master of The Top 10 List - David Letterman - I have assembled the Ultimate Top 10 Reasons to Buy American Made Products

10.    American Made Toys Are Lead Free

9.      Toys Made In The USA Are Cadmium Free (I can live with destabilized plastic)

8.      US Made Dry Wall Won't Corrode Your Home's Electrical Wiring

7.      The US Stopped Exploiting Child Labor Early in the 20th Century

6.      US Companies Respect Trademarks and Copyrights (for the most part :))

5.      I Prefer That My Hard Earned Money Remain In A Free Republic Rather Than Flowing to A Totalitarian State That Engages In Cyber-Attacks, Copyright Violations And Corporate Espionage.

4.      9 Out Of 10 Economists Agree - Reducing The Trade Imbalance Is As Important As Reducing High Cholesterol And Using Sugar Free Gum – (the 1 out of 10 is an agent of a foreign government and likely not registered as a lobbyist either)

3.      I Like My Paper Money To Be Worth A Little MORE Than The Paper It's Printed On

2.      If The Downward Trend In US Manufacturing Continues We Will Pass A Point Of No Return.  (To quote Dr. Peter Vankman It will be “ a disaster of biblical proportions…. Human sacrifices, dogs and cats living together! Mass hysteria!”  Need I say more?)

1.      The USA Still Makes Great Products.
