I would call it the right move for the wrong reason, but you bet.

Re: When praying for jobs and...

Try finding something made in North America!!! Almost impossible, not quite, but almost.... we have been trying to do that for several years, checking labels of clothing, and various things we buy... getting more and more difficult to find products made completely in the US or Canada. Oftentimes things will say "made in China, assembled in the USA" too when you read the fine print... thinking that it has been completely made here.

Re: When praying for jobs and...

I know people who work in what few factories we have left say that they have put "Made in America" stickers on the products that came in from overseas. Go figure.

The way I see it, we have so many foreign companies investing in America now...like Toyota, Hyundai, Nissan and others that we cannot go by the foreign name. Many people are buying these vehicles that are made right here in America by americans.

Some of those factories are now closed. For instance, Honda does not make motorcycles in the US anymore.
