ABC Video Makes You Think

A fellow Longaberger consultant posted a comment on Facebook about buying American made and she included a link to a video that had been shown on ABC Nightly News.  I've attached it here.  It really makes you stop and think -- even with good intent of buying American made -- we've gotten away from buying what's made locally here in the USA.  How sad, especially when we also think about the jobs we've lost with this change.

I hope you'll take a look at this.  (Here's a comment from Tracey Oetterer Clines, the fellow Longaberger consultant.)  "Take a second and watch this video... it's an eye opener. I've also said... it's cheaper to pay a little more for something made in America, than to pay unemployment for your neighbors."
