Made in the USA

My albums and prints are made in the United States of America. We can’t avoid every international retailer or manufacturer, but buying locally makes a difference.

Think of the great American brands like Airstream, Chevrolet, Crayola Crayons, Ford, Gibson Guitars, Hallmark, Harley-Davidson, Herman Miller, Igloo, Jeep, KitchenAid, Levi Strauss, New Balance, Pyrex, Smith & Wesson, Steinway Pianos, Stetson Hats, Viking Appliances, Weber, and Zippo.

Buying American matters. Here’s why:

Job Creation: USA manufacturing means we’re fighting unemployment and creating more jobs. And those American jobs create more American jobs.

Human Rights Assurances: Our federal government enforces human rights, fair labor treatment, fair wages, and encourages safe manufacturing conditions.

Environment: American companies are held to high standards for reducing carbon footprints by reducing emissions and pollutants.

Taxes: USA manufacturers pay government taxes. So do their employees. Those tax dollars invest in our education, infrastructure, national defense, social security, transportation, and science research.

Patriotic: Buying American is patriotic. Enough said?
