Supporting American industry while simultaneously advocating for decent working conditions is key. Why? Because in America we've had our share of gruesome working conditions putting profit over health. We aren't superior. And we find that even our representatives are willing to shut down American businesses and support mass chains that care more about the bottom dollar than individuals well being. Really the best thing to do is support local, small mom and pop... The concept of parallel economy, is one many young people are interested in- they realize the mass corporations that virtue signal and spout moral superiority are some of the worse offenders.

There's so much in this topic alone... But in the end, I can say- supporting local mom and pop is like casting a vote.
We do this with our food, with our entertainment, with our housing, with our communities...You choose where you want to do business...

Unfortunately we've been blind sided by convenience and don't realize just how deep this "rabbit hole" goes.
