Would you be in favor of passing laws that made it illegal to outsource jobs?
No.

"American" businesses have more to do with driving "American" businesses OUT of business than imports ever hoped to.
Yes, every true, but the consumer has the control to avoid those business.

The US is just moving on to a more service-based economy leaving manufacturing to developing countries like China and India, and a host of others. It's hard to purchase anything American nowadays anyway.

I understand your point about buying domestic goods, but honestly, most manufactured products have so much import content that where it's made is not where the money is going.
Yes, scroll up. You'll see that you are AGREEING with me.

Because we are funding them by buying their crappy products. Their quality will increase and the US will end up being a SERVICE based country.

Why do you guys have such a problem buying American? You are American's right? You do live in America don't you? You work in America? So why not just buy one american product a week and give the American company some money to stay in business.

Dude - you've got to keep up. They have retrofit systems that will not foul under those conditions.
