It is a false belief that products made in America would cost too much to afford. Many itmes are made here and are affordable. Maybe that VCR would cost $150 instead of $125. Maybe that phone would cost $35 instead of $25. But, Americans with money would buy more of MY products than China or India. As such, it is better to ensure Americans are working than ensuring the Chinese are working. Besides, who can buy even the Chinese stuff if no one in America is working because everything is made overseas? The argument of cheap overseas products doesn't hold up.

Sure does. Even if the difference is small, it adds up. Imagine a 5 or 10% increase in the price of goods. Sounds small? Nope. If I can buy a TV made in Mexico for $200, why would I buy one made in America for $300?
