m.i.a: made in america!
Updated: Jun 24
i entertained developing this blog after an old investor client contacted me during the covid debacle about a podcast topic,
they asked me with my past experience, what i professional predicted would be a solid long-term investment during the economical downtime,
honestly,
i was clueless, off the grid, minding my humble bizness, also i don’t like blind challenges,
so, i went into research/think tank mode, went thru the archive info, tapped into reliable resources before i laid out my findings,
we came up with a bunch of investment options,
but chose one to paint a visiual,
made in america products, point blank!!!

that’s what i came up with,
many of our economic issues probably came from the lack of “american made products”, i’m talking from a - z, you name it,
don’t take my word for it, do your own statistical research,
we collected data from 2017 to mid 2020/21 and realized,
“wow, we don’t have to many authentic american manufactured products",
find your niche is my advice…
go understand the jargon, language of what is considered “american made” products
[i might be mistaken but i believe there's three tiers or so],
hopefully, the energy has shifted,
however, i don’t think so,
we're in a state of denial & hypocrisy with all the other distractions bleeding our resources and hard earn money out our pockets which affects our economy,
we put in but don't get the same amount out of the arrangement...
do american taxes go into american business, doing business off the mainland?
i hope that made sense sometimes my mental dyslexia plays tricks on me,
from the food on your table [also the table],
to the clothes on your back,
to the materials used to build your house,
your vehicle, toys, electronics,
shoes on your feet,
and everyday necessities we need to survive,
"how much of those items are curated and manufactured in the us of a?"
women lie, men lie, yet facts with evidence is hard to deny…
to confirm what is obvious,
i would randomly check “made in” tags on various type of products sold,
from produce in the supermarket to electronics in famous retail stores,
and everything in between,
and i found that we are funding other countries economy and neglecting our own for “convenience” and cost "efficiency"..!.
hopefully the robots taking over the jobs are "made in america",
i’m just saying,
that idea is becoming more inevitable at this point.
small business should probably benefit from focusing on “made in america” produced products, a bit expense yet rewarding long term,
if we're loyal to our soil,
why not toil on the soil we want our citizens to die for,
there has to be a huge union style community betting on “making american products great again”, i hope!

july 4th is "independence day",
such a patriotic holiday, we celebrate our existence and like to brag about our existence proudly, however…
“have you ever looked where those lil american flags are made”?
imagine if bourbon was made in mexico, it wouldn’t be considered “bourbon” technically,
you know why?
heard of champagne? of course you have, the rich folks love it,
same concept, it won’t be considered “champagne” unless it's from a certain region from a certain country,
so, i might come off a little facetious but,
why aren’t more american flags made in america?
i’m not savvy on the actually flags that go on poles,
eg. @ government buildings, schools, hospitals, bases, etc...
but them little joints sure as fuck don’t, and the hats, tee shirts you wear faithfully, embarrassing, not american!
who do you we blame,
the “consumers” looking for a deal, or the “companies” with agendas of annual profits?
just asking for an investor...
imagine if we all demanded more "m.i.a" products, and became deliberate in not purchasing offshore products,
do you think "american" companies would conform to new shopping trends and invest in american made products?

is it fair to say america wasn't built by americans,
so, the culture of not investing in america was always a dream like a ponzi scheme that turn into a nightmare when it became reality...
is it financial possible for the united states to make "made in america" products?
or, is that against the principals of capitalism [profits over people]?
maybe we've become too expensive for made in america products to be made in america...
if you're an american citizen, [or not], or just a fan of american culture,
"do you believe we should be creating more products in america",
and rewarded for the loyalty to the "movement",
not "turn-coating" on the principals for greedy profits?
just something to think about,
seems like the talk of tariffs are just frustrations of an elite group feeling the squeeze...
guess we gotta put "our knees on the ground" and do what we do best!
