With daunting deficits and a seemly gridlocked government, it can be difficult to believe you can make a difference, but that’s not true. For every dollar you spend on an American product, another $1.35 goes to the American economy.

Continuously buying made in America products is key not only to stimulate the economy, but also to encourage American job growth. When a demand is created, manufacturing jobs increase. And for every manufacturer position, three more jobs are created, according to American Made Matters.

On average, an American family spends $700 on Christmas presents. If $64 worth of that amount went to American products, 200,000 U.S. jobs could be created.

So support your country, and buy made in America goods!
