What do you think?

Is "union made" a more reliable guide to things fully made in the US?

And to boot, the item you buy helps the Union movement!

1. I definitely look for "union made" first and "Made in USA" second. If it says "Made in USA," I do my

research so I don't end up buying something from the Marianas or something.

2. Shop local goods from local merchants not corporate imports.
