I agree with you 100%. But what about ‘marketing’ products made in the US? It’s easy for consumers to part with their money for the right product.
Remember FUBU (For Us By Us)? I thought they had a niche that could work but their products were made outside of the US. They came out with egg on their face, so to speak. Those that talk the talk should walk the walk.
However I’ve not heard any good solutions for the real problems of globalization, technology and demographics. I don’t think there’s much you can do but prepare.

Marketing in a certain way is something that business owners, in liberty, are free to do. But your best point was on not being any real solutions for globalization. There aren’t. There is never a “solution” for reality, because it exists whether or not you want to admit it or not. Besides, in every economic change, there is both good and bad, but neither is permanent. The only bad/bad economy is one that is planned. To “solve” globalization would be to try and “plan” an economy. Never works. And as Milton Friedman asks, “so where will we get these angels who will make all these decisions for us. I don’t trust you to do that.”

And by ‘you’ - he means ANYONE.
