    I want to apologize to you since I don't believe in being rude towards each other.

    a boycott would be a small price to pay if its means preserving our integrity as a nation.

    I will still be buying American products when I need to. Wonder what would happen if a Benny popped up for sale again in shop, I'm betting a lot of people would turn a blind eye and purchase it, even though they said they will no longer buy American goods. This boycotting American stuff is getting out of hand

    Just commenting on a lot of these threads latley calling for the banning of American products. To each their own, I for one will not let the state of things stop me from buying American products or stop me from visiting the USA.

    no... im speaking generally. i mean if youre going to boycott 'american' products, make sure they are actually MADE in the US by US companies and not just made by an american company in a FOREIGN country, otherwise youre going to disadvantage non american workers who work below the poverty line.

    All products made by American companies are fair game. Doesn't matter where they are made.

    it will only be temporary.
  • vaggar99vaggar99 San Diego USA Posts: 3,427
    if you want to target actual American products, you'll have to be more specific because there isnt much out there. Perhaps US manufactured automobiles?

    There is one or two other threads, not going to flip thru to find them, there isn't a ton, but some.
    So what if there is an American made product that your family absolutely needs to get by, survive ot whatever the reason may be. You telli me you won't purchase it?
    The last part isnt directed specifically to you Jose, just saying
