As we head toward a one world government we might as well support people actually making things inside these United States. Which products do you like that are MADE IN THE USA?

Here are 2 I like:

https://www.originusa.com

Incredible Jeans and other clothing made in Maine. Fully sourced inside the USA. Their Jeans are flexible and just right:



https://www.leatherman.com

Multitools Made in Portlandia. Every guy should have one. TSA loves to take them cause they think you're a terrorist:

Letter from the founder
PETE ROBERTS
The ideas of the American Dream live in the mind of the dreamer. The American Dream is a mindset, one I’ve always believed in. Eventually, someone has to speak up. Not with words, but with action. Revolution doesn't have to be a physical campaign. This bruised and battered American Dream needs you and I to believe in it. For me, it was the simple act of saying “NO”. My silent protest to the world, to greed, to communism, to evil… building a factory, and saving a loom. Risking it all on an impossible mission. Embracing the beauty and burden of the unknown, to prove there can be a new WAVE OF FREEDOM. One that injects soul back into this republic and her calloused hands. From Maine, we can once again be the tip of the spear. Shedding a light on America’s abandoned communities and people, to help them, to tell their story, and to once again, like our ancestors, become savage Yankees from New England, taking a stand, to take it back, to inspire a nation, and to change the world.

I ordered luscious new gemstones from India and made new earrings for my SA mart thread

Remember my earrings and art are much better than my posting

New stuff starts towards end of page 3 of the thread
Oh I'm not sorry

If I put it on my face or cook with it I do want it Made in the USA

Of course that's all going to end, regulations of any kind and that's actually too depressing to think about this morning.....

Incredibly low odds any makeup sources its ingredients in the US or anyone stateside is doing anything to verify what's in them jsyk

Maybe if you do the hippie stuff someone mashed themselves out of weeds they got in their driveway but if it's got any binders/emulsifiers in it lol

Let me 100% recommend (not paid) "California Olive Ranch"

https://www.californiaoliveranch.com/products/100-california-everyday/41079566074040

Due to California law, they have to reveal all their ingredients. They have two olive oils, one that is 100% Californian olive. And another that is sourced from different places.

I mention this only because I was shocked to learn about the global olive oil industry, and how its all crime and lies. No "Italian" olive oil you buy at the grocery store is anything but.

This makes me wonder, as an open question for the thread, which countries have the best sets of regulations when it comes to consumer products? I'm guessing most of Europe is pretty good, along with Japan and maybe South Korea? It'd be nice to know after all our agencies and standards are gutted by the upcoming admin.
