Reasons to Buy American Made

Jobs

Jobs are important. We need to work at keeping jobs in the USA. Manufacturing jobs support a large number of American families. Buy American-Made products; put more money back into manufacturing American-Made goods. Helping the manufacturing sector grow creates jobs, and more money goes back in our economy.

Lower Carbon Footprint

Fossil fuel and greenhouse gases are two very real and dangerous environmental hazards. Reduce both fossil fuel and greenhouse gases by purchasing products made in America.

Less Pollution

Buying local reduces wasted materials by not having to ship supplies and materials so far. That reduces the amount of damaged product during transit. Buying local also lowers the carbon footprint from not traveling as far for manufacturing and delivery.

Human Rights

America has strict standards for working, which many countries do not. Buying American made products keeps jobs in the USA, and work environments healthy and safe. We, as humans, have the right to work in a safe environment. We humans have the right to work in a healthy environment. Some other countries do not respect basic human rights.

Health

Not only is your physical health important, but your mental health, and environment are as well. Buy American to support the healthy work environments of your fellow Americans. The last thing we want to do is support the working conditions of sweat shops and places like that.

Stronger Economy

Buying from your local economy helps to reduce pollution, lower the carbon footprint, and support human rights and health. Those will all make the economy stronger. When we support our fellow Americans we build relationships that help strengthen the economy as well.

American Independence

Americans take pride in our nation and independence. Americans need to end our reliance on other countries and take back our independence. Buy products made at home – buy American-made. We have more than we need to survive in our country, so let’s start using more of our own resources.

Environment Benefits

When we invest in American products, we are doing our part to contribute to a cleaner environment. The toll taken on the environment is less harmful when local people use local materials, versus shipping overseas. It benefits our environment to sell locally as well, by reducing the gas pollution. The US also has higher standards for emissions, meaning the factories in the US are giving off less pollutants in the air. The environmental benefits will have lasting effects for years to come.

Labor Standards

Sweatshops in third-world countries make products that are consumed by Americans. Without intention, this is supporting low labor standards. The easiest way to rally against bad labor standards is to buy from an American company. Nimble Sports supports quality labor standards by making all gymnastics equipment in the USA.

Quality of Goods

Foreign imports give no guarantee of quality. Buying American made products helps guarantee you will purchase quality made products. America has higher quality standards than other countries, as well. Dollar for dollar, buying closer to home will give you a higher quality than ordering from China (for example).
