Defend Your Country, Buy American, Buy Americas, Buy Allies, Buy Non-Enemies

Today I bought some socks at Wally World and took the effort not to send money to a most likely future enemy, China.  There were options from China, Honduras,  and El Salvador.  The socks from El Salvador were also an American company so at least a portion of the profits came home and those going to El Salvador in the form of wages at least support jobs that might keep that country afloat and thus draw fewer of them into our country illegally.  Win Win

When you are buying things consider to whom the money goes.   Think about how you might someday regret sending resources to a rival and soon to be enemy.


Right now I don't think I want to send money to China, Russia, and most places in the Middle East.  On that basis  I suggest you look a the food you buy now too.  I simply won't buy food sourced in China for a number of reasons mostly due to safety but now for funding the military buildup they are doing to challenge the U.S.  In a local food store here I noticed that almost all of the bulk frozen fish packs have China as a source.  Sorry, not gonna do it.  I found the Gortons brand that seems to be U.S. sourced.  Also for Sardines I'd rather send the money to Portugal or Morocco than the Chicoms again.
