Feeding the Monster: The strength comes from you

So, today I got this posted on my fb wall and I had to share here:





Really?  That's a shame because people  -- yes, even American patriots -- seem to refuse to be willing to 'do without' what they LIKE to make this necessary change that could possibly redirect the American economy.   How do I know?  Let's look at the viewing stats (actions) of this un-fun video, shall we?

When I got this on my fb page I thought, "I will share this and one of the first comments (I bet) will show up is "everything is made in China somewhere down the assembly line." and that is the attitude.  Or "you give up your laptop and I'll think about giving up mine." "  Happens every time I post something about Made In USA.

I have switched my make up. I switched shampoo/creme rinse, I don't shop Kohl's anymore because I couldn't find ONE single garment that was made in the USA. But I pointed it out to someone shopping beside me who said... "that's just the way it is."  And electronics... where do you get made in America electronics?
Little by little we have handed our power to China and we didn't even see it.  We are a weakened 'structure' and our 'weight-bearing' walls have become brittle and rotted. But if we really want to turn it around -- WE HAVE the education, WE HAVE the ability, WE HAVE the unity and WE HAVE the numbers to re-enforce this country's production ... but it will take something new.

                                                  It will take something outrageous.

                                                        It will take something BOLD... it will take.... dare I say it...              


                                            IMMEDIATE ACTION!!


We can continue to feed the monster that rages before us getting more and more powerful as they eat away at what substance our nation has left, or we can choose to begin to act like the entrepreneurs that originally built this nation.   We can choose to come together utilizing our talents, incomes, and determination to enforce our own nation. This is America and we do have a choice.
