26. Another thing about Made in the USA.
I don't think there are enough manufacturing facilities in the US to facilitate this goal...you wouldn't be able to get comparable products that are made in the USA.

How many American electronics manufacturers are there? There goes a whole department.

It isn't very realistic.

More realistic is a store that does its best to moderate between profit and value for all stakeholders, including employees, consumers, and production facilities.

I like to think that Costco is just such a company.
