    What manufactured goods does America even make that are not for military purpose? I’m sure there must be something.

      That’s the fun part! Odds are good their “American” goods are also made locally, or at least in Asia, but American brands come with baggage and licensing fees, and premium pricing, for some reason.

      This is an important point.

      We have to remember the US already manufacturers most every product outside the US.

      In part this means their tarrifs wars are less harmful to Thier own politicians.

      It is important to remember companies doing this are still funding US political parties and politicians.

      Boycotting coca cola pepsi apple and other US companies that fund the US but make stuff all over the world. Is important.
