Vanity - Sharing a post --> National boycott of Chinese goods
4-3-2020 | Vanity

Posted on 04/02/2020 9:37:01 PM PDT by fuzzylogic

If it says "Made in China" I'm not buying...and no, that's not racist. The CCP are an enemy, they don't even care about their own people. The CCP must be crushed, so long as their economy continues to grow it won't happen. We have far too many products related to our national security coming from there.

Buy American/British first...then elsewhere - just not China.

I agree, and there are plenty of people who feel the same.

You may be able to do it. Some of us may only be able to try to do it. I needed a 12V insecticide sprayer yesterday ALL I could find are made in China. Not something I can do without.

Went looking for a piece of light equipment at Titan Tools. Not available, sold out, fabricated in China. May be able to go elsewhere but at higher cost though the chicom imports keep prices down.

Without the chicom competition watch price gouging send prices to the moon.

At least “do it as possible”. I understand but the concept is more important than being absolute.

"I want “Made In USA” again."

So do I. Not just "assembled" in the USA.
or "Distributed" by So-and-So company in the USA. The law must state totally built (parts and all)
and assembled in the USA by US citizens.

I said in a thread post that we need to start making many important products in the US again

I was attacked with a false argument by a globalist who asked “what about the products nobody wants to make?? Will the government make them?? Like OTB etc?”

It was a stupid question and i was too tired to answer.

If it is being made somewhere else, then it is a profitable product to make.

I can’t BELIEVE there are still globalist NAFTA loving H1B worshiping folks here.

Very few, but they exist.

And I have been doing it as possible for many years.

The chicoms are not our friends. Most of the chinese people are not our enemies but will choose to survive before we do.

This is the time to do it. As more and more people in the world become aware of how the Communists misled the world for months about the CCP virus (only 3,000 dead? Seriously? Probably more like 300,000 or more) and not only allowed it to spread beyond China, but also created the virus in one of their bioweapon labs, there is going to be a huge backlash against anything from China. Even the Chinese people living in China don't want to buy the shoddy and deadly products made in China, they will happily pay 10-20x more for something from the West.

Not only is it the time to do it, but there are a lot of really smart industrious people here on FR. A good first step would be to create a bartering site for existing products that were made in China. There are lots of spare parts out there, lots of cheap Chinese products sitting around in garages, sheds, closets, etc. that could be used as spare parts rather than buying something brand new from the CCP.

Two years ago I searched for dinnerware that was made in the USA.

Found H.F. Coors company from Tucson, AZ

Bought a set of Classic White dinnerware.

If I recall correctly, they hire veterans.

www.hfcoors.com

I can guarantee there are now many, many millions of Americans AGREE with your sentiment. Now more than ever.
As popular as President Trump is. As much as he’s pushed this concept for many years, this Wuhan Flu has done more to awaken Americans who can be wakened than anything else.
That said, after nearly 30 years of OUTSOURCING there are simply far too many things so many people need that are currently all Made In Communist China.
All we can currently hope to do is minimize our consumption of those things as much as we can.
The other thing we can do is, look to see if there is an American equivalent and simply agree to spend a bit more than we’re used to and Buy American whenever it is possible.
If we’re not willing to do this well, we’re screwed.

"...that could be used as spare parts rather than buying something brand new from the CCP. "

What about entertaining targets at the range?

It could be a new YouTube Channel.
