I HAVE NOT HEARD A LOT ABOUT WHAT ANY OF THE PRESIDENTIAL HOPEFULS WANT TO DO ABOUT BRINGING JOBS BACK TO AMERICA.  PERSONALLY I THINK THAT IT SHOULD BE ONE OF THE TOP SUBJECTS.  I KEEP HEARING ABOUT UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE, BUT IF PEOPLE HAD JOBS THAT CARRIED BENIFITS THEN WE WOULDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE. 

ALL WE KEEP HEARING ABOUT ARE PLANT COLSINGS AND THE OPERATIONS ARE GOING OVERSEAS.  WE NEED TO BE FIGHTING TO KEEP THE JOBS HERE SO THAT THE MONEY SPENT ON PRODUCTS STAYS IN THIS COUNTRY, THEREFORE CREATING MORE JOBS.  I ALSO THINK THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T BOTHER TO LOOK FOR AMERICAN MADE PRODUCTS THINKING THAT IS WILL COST MORE, BUT I HAVE FOUND THAT NOT TO BE TRUE IN ALL CASES.  ALL IT TAKES IS A SECOND TO LOOK ON A PACKAGE OR LABEL.  ALSO I HAVE NOTICED THAT IN SOME GROCERY STORES THEY PUT LABELS ON THE SHELVES THAT SHOW IF A PRODUCT IS FROM NORTH CAROLINA.

PERSONALLY I THINK THAT IF WE WANT OUR COUNTRY TO BE MORE SELF SUFFICIENT, WE NEED TO CREATE A DEMAND FOR AMERICAN MADE PRODUCTS BY MAKING AN EFFORT TO BUY PRODUCTS MADE HERE.
