One Light Bulb at a Time.
by Marti

I wish I could take credit for this but I can't. It was sent to me via e-mail, no author. I have not checked these items myself. I am writing it just as I received it.
Buying US makes sense, especially if we are trying to keep jobs here.
A physics teacher in high school, once told the students that while one grasshopper on the railroad tracks wouldn't slow a train very much, a billion of them would.
With that thought in mind, read the following, obviously written by a good American.
Good idea..... one light bulb at a time.....
Check this out.. I can verify this because I was in Lowes the other day - I was looking at the hose attachments. They were all made in China.
The next day I was in Ace Hardware, and just for the heck of it, I checked the hose attachments there. They were made in USA...
Start looking --- in our current economic situation every little thing we buy or do affects someone else - even their job.
So, after reading this email, I think this lady is on the right track. Let's get behind her.
My grandson likes Hershey's candy. I noticed though, that it is marked 'made in Mexico' now. I do not buy it any more..
My favorite toothpaste, Colgate, is now made in Mexico. I have switched to Crest.
You have to read the labels on everything.
This past weekend I was in Kroger. I needed 60 watt light bulbs and dryer sheets. I was in the light bulb aisle and right next to the GE brand I normally buy was an off-brand labeled "Everyday Value". I picked up both brands of bulbs and compared the stats - they were the same, except for the price. The GE brand was more --- but the thing that surprised me the most was the fact that GE was made in Mexico and the Everyday Value brand was made in - get ready for this - the USA - a company in Cleveland, Ohio.
So, on to another aisle - Bounce Dryer Sheets..... yep, you guessed it, Bounce cost more money and is made in Canada. This Everyday Value Brand was less money and made in the USA! I did laundry yesterday and the dryer sheets performed just like the Bounce Free I have been using for years and at almost half the price!
So throw out the myth that you cannot find products that are made right here. My challenge is for you to start reading the labels when you shop for everyday things and see what you can find that is made in the USA - the job you save may be your own or your neighbors!
If you accept the challenge, pass this on to everyone you know so we can all start buying American, one light bulb at a time. (We should have awakened a decade ago!!!)
