Top Ten Reasons to Buy USA Made Products:

10) Foreign labor standards allow unsafe worker conditions in many countries. When you buy American you support not only American manufacturers but also American workers, safe working conditions, and child labor laws.
9) Jobs shipped abroad almost never return. When you buy goods made in the USA, you help keep the American economy growing.
8) US manufacturing processes are much cleaner for the environment than many other countries; many brands sold here are produced in countries using dangerous, heavily polluting processes. When you purchase American-made product, you know that you're helping to keep the world a little cleaner for your children.
7) Many countries have no minimum wage restrictions, or the minimum wage is outrageously low. When you choose products made in the USA, you contribute to the payment of an honest day's wages for an honest day's work.
6) The growing lack of USA ability to manufacture many products is strategically unsound. When you seek out American-made goods, you foster American independence.
5) The huge US trade deficit leads to massive, unsustainable borrowing from other countries. Debt isn't good for you and it isn't good for America.
4) Foreign product safety standards are low. For example, poisonous levels of lead are in tens of millions of toys shipped to the USA. When you buy toys and other goods made in the USA, you can be confident that American consumer protection laws and safety standards are in place to protect your family.
3) Lack of minimum wage, worker safety, or environmental pollution controls in many countries undermines the concept of "fair and free trade". No Western nation can ultimately compete on price with a country willing to massively exploit and pollute its own people. When you buy only American-made products, you insist on a higher standard.
2) Factories and money are shifting to countries not friendly to the USA or democracy. When you avoid imported goods in favor of American-made items, you help ensure that the United States doesn't find its access to vital goods impacted by political conflict.
1) As the US manufacturing ability fades, future generations of US citizens will be unable to find relevant jobs. Buy American and help keep your friends and neighbors-and even yourself-earning a living wage.

Risks with Property Tax Liens
Aug 24, 2010 Bobbi Holmes
You can make money investing in tax liens - Bobbi HolmesMaking high interest investing in property tax liens is supposed to be a safe investment. Yet, no investment is without some risks. 
The infomercials make it sound like an easy, sure way to make it rich. All you need to do is spend a couple of hundred dollars buying property tax liens, and before you know it, the property is yours. While the scenario is somewhat possible, there is more to investing in property tax liens, which is why you are encouraged to pay for the class that goes with the infomercial.
Property tax is one way local governments pay for services. When property owners fail to pay their taxes, one way some states get the cash back into the coffers is to sell liens on the unpaid taxes. This means the buyer of the lien pays the unpaid tax, and earns a high interest. The investor gets back his initial investment, plus interest, when the property owner finally pays the

IRS Tax Liens Stay with the Property
Commercial property poses a different issue. Property taxes take priority over all other liens. Which means the mortgage holder loses out if the homeowner eventually loses the property due to unpaid property tax. Yet, there are some exceptions, one being the IRS. An IRS lien will stay with the property. If you eventually get the property, you get the IRS lien. This is something that is more likely to happen with commercial property. Yet, it can also happen with residential properties and land.

Warning: Recently there have been attempts to purchase old worn-out scrap vehicle parts, for resale, from several auto repair shops in our area. Repair shops need to be aware that in order to resell/rebuild scrap auto parts, a business must be licensed by the state. This industry is regulated and licensed by the Public Safety Dept. (301-729-4550). Repair shops need to be cautious about reselling used car parts. If the used auto parts they resell are placed in a vehicle by another mechanic/company, Auto repair shops may be held liable for damages and injuries resulting from reselling these used scrap car parts. Remanufactured used car parts are strictly regulated to ensure safety and quality standards. Usually, old scrap car parts are salvaged as scrap metal at the local scrap metal process facility. Repair shops need to be sure where their scrap used car parts are going, and if they are being rebuilt.

Common marketing techniques for small business include networking, word of mouth, customer referrals, yellow pages directories, television, radio, outdoor (roadside billboards), print, email marketing, and internet. Electronic media like TV can be quite expensive and is normally intended to create awareness of a product or service.

Mom and Pop Co-ops Group Buying For Small Businesses
momandpopcoops.com/
Small "mom and pop" stores currently make their purchases through distributors. Their pricing on
products is largely based on the volume procured. Because of their size, these stores are not receiving volume discounts and are forced to sell products at a much higher price than larger retail chains. That's the inspiration behind our game changing platform for small businesses.... cannot justify the order size:  Enter Mom & Pop Co-ops, a marketplace for you to collaborate on group purchases with other independent retailers in your area.

How Mom and Pop can save the economy
 
The latest unemployment numbers offer little to cheer about and have left many in Washington
asking, “What now?” After a stimulus bill, bailouts and reforms, job growth has stagnated and the economy is flat lining. Last month, President Obama turned to American businesses to “step up” and hire more employees. Many agree that American enterprise is the vehicle for economic revitalization, but it is family-owned business that is the engine.Family-owned businesses across the country have been stepping up for generations. At 5.5 million strong in the United States, family-owned businesses are generating 57 percent of U.S. GDP and collectively employing 63 percent of the workforce. In fact, 75 percent of all new jobs are generated by family businesses. Far from photo-op created jobs, family-owned businesses are in it for the long haul. They are among the most resilient in unstable economies and are most likely to hire and retain new employees. Perhaps more importantly, they are more risk averse and are unlikely to leverage debt to extremes or invest frivolously, favoring longevity over profit. Despite the many tax disadvantages they face, family businesses have higher performance and outperform non-family companies by three percent per year. So if lawmakers are looking for new ways to foster long-term growth in the economy, pursuing policies that will help family businesses thrive would be a great place to start. Unfortunately, despite all of the many impressive attributes that family-owned businesses offer, they are treated very differently and in many cases unfairly when it comes to public policy. One example of this is the recently passed health care reform bill, which offers a new tax credit for eligible employers that provide and pay for a portion of health insurance coverage for their employees. Unfortunately, the credit excludes family members of owners and partners from counting as employees for purposes of the credit. For instance, if you are a family business owner who has 10 employees but five of them are considered family members, you would only be eligible for a tax credit for five employees. Another unfair policy burden on family businesses is the potential threat of reform that would alter the tax laws related to partnerships, S corporations, limited liability corporations or other so-called pass-through entities, and require that these business structures be treated as corporations for tax purposes. A large portion of family-owned businesses are structured in this manner and such a reform would wreak havoc on our country’s business-owning families.
Then of course, there’s the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the fate of the estate tax. Planning to
anticipate and minimize a family business owner’s estate tax liability usually takes years and significant financial resources that could be reinvested to grow the business. Some businesses may opt to purchase more life insurance, scale back growth or invest in other savings rather than growing their business, providing jobs and boosting the economy. Without extensive advance planning and ongoing monitoring of one’s situation, the estate tax can overwhelm a family business, resulting in loss of employees, higher prices, liquidation of assets or closing the business altogether just to cover the tax burden.Because family-owned businesses have a longer-term planning horizon, they also reinvest a large percentage of their earnings into the business, which in turn provides a stable base for company growth and jobs. If Congress allows the current tax rate on long-term capital gains and dividends to increase it will ultimately have a negative impact on a family’s reinvestment in the company and overall economic activity.
From corner stores to Fortune 500 companies, today’s “Mom and Pop” family businesses can be
a key ingredient to our economic rebound and help us prosper again in the generations to come. As our elected officials go looking for places to grow jobs, they’d be wise to bypass Wall Street and look to Main Street.
