Support American market or suport a free market, can't have it both
QuoteSupport American market or suport a free market, can't have it bothThey're not mutually exclusive. I am a firm believer in the free market but I also try to support American companies. There's a difference in simply supporting American companies and actually restricting or banning products from other companies. Like I said, I try to support American companies. I buy Fords, and I will probably continue to do so unless I start not getting my money's worth. If that happens then I will shop for a foreign car.
Some of the foriegn cars have more US content than American cars.
Over here a lot of people get a very uncomfortable feeling if someone puts their own country and people first before the rest of the world. It is a history thing I guess...
