Groupthink is a b!tch. Sure you can't buy 100% American, but this global economy argument is a red-herring. It is ignorant at best, and the cause of our economic problems in reality.

Trade laws aren't fair. You guys want to spend your money indiscriminately based on price. The reason their products are cheaper is because they allow workers in their country to be exploited, and manipulate trade policy intentionally to undercut the world market.

It's going to be more expensive to buy American. You may not always get the best quality either. At some point though, you have to quit sh!tting in your own backyard. Save yourselves or start saving your money to move to a country that hasn't been ravaged by its own ignorance.
