Of course, I like buying and supporting American companies. I like what Midway is doing with the labels. However, I look for quality before place of manufacture. Also, we should realize that just because a product is made overseas, it does not necessarily mean that it is junk. Furthermore, buying something made in China or elsewhere does not necessarily mean that your purchase is not supporting American workers and/or an American-owned business. As other have pointed out, there are American-born companies that assemble products from pieces made elsewhere and there are foreign-based countries with plants in the USA who make everything in the USA; it is not always as clean-cut as “USA company and all USA parts and fully assembled/manufactured in USA.” With about everything, there are excellent quality products and crummy products made in every country. I would argue though that, generally speaking, countries such as the U.S., Switzerland, Germany, etc tend to make better products (likely because of higher manufacturing standards and skilled laborers) than say China, the Philippines, etc. However, the overgeneralization that “Made in USA” = quality product and “Made in China” = crap is misguided.
Personally, I buy whatever product suits my needs best regardless of place of manufacture. That said, when comparing products, if price, features, quality, etc appear to be the same, there is a 99% chance I’ll go with a USA-made product.
