Description
BUY AMERICAN is easier to say than to do. Reading labels is not the answer: Gold Medal Flour & Pillsbury Flour both list Minneapolis, Minnesota, as their home, but only one is American-owned. Every day we send billions of dollars over one ocean or the other--not because the foreign products are better--but because we don't know which "American" products are actually American-owned. We are witnessing the greatest transfer of wealth outside a battlefield in the history of the world. Already there are more than 100 products--including VCRs & camcorders--that have NO American-owned manufacturers. BUY AMERICAN lists thousand of products & services & which country owns them. The ten chapters cover groceries, health & beauty products, cleaning products, appliances, consumer-electronics, computers, banks & insurance companies, retail stores, supermarkets, restaurants, hotels, landmarks & the transportation industry. We must BUY AMERICAN while there is American left to buy. Printed by Bookmasters (800) 247-6553. Bulk orders thru (800) BUY USA-1. FAX: (800) 883-9494.
