Made In America

I intended to extend my blog from yesterday. But instead I created a second blog called Made in America. I did not intend to have a whole new blog. I intended the subject for today be called Made in America. A list of companies and goods and products can be found on the site Made In America (that no longer exists). I tried to add a link to that old site but was prevented from doing so. Perhaps someone will revitalize it for us, and I will add it again.
Starting with The Story of Stuff a 20 minute video which is about planned and perceived obsolescence and ending with the idea that we are all much too wasteful and need to stop filling up the landfills. I perceive that the junk we buy from China is part of the bigger problem. We need to keep jobs here in the United States. Hopefully others will jump on board and start reproducing and producing NEW quality products and stop relying on imports. I hope that I can create a favorite web site page somewhere on my site that includes these dynamic websites in a column for immediate access. I want to install some of these more permanently but my skills are still in infancy. It is nice that there still are things made in America and I am proud to be an American Silversmith. I should also mention that Fiestaware Dinnerware that I sell on Ebay is also still an American company. Perhaps the Still Made in America site needs to be recreated. I still have the old site in my bookmarks, so I can republish the info into my daily blog and create a new list. Hopefully others will add to my list and it will be worthy of a website and daily blog in and of itself.
