Given the fragile state of our American economy and our ever-widening trade deficits, more and more consumers are opting to buy from American businesses. Consumers understand that buying from America- owned businesses means their dollars stay here and keep American workers employed. Even if an American business sells imported goods, part of their revenue goes towards keeping their employees here employed. However, if the product and sales support staff are all from overseas, all of the American consumer’s money is sent overseas to support a foreign economy. As technology makes our world increasingly smaller, it becomes more and more difficult to distinguish between foreign and domestic companies that sell tungsten rings.
