Our economy depends on our spending to put money back into the businesses that support our well-being. As we go through the current economic crisis it is apparent that consumer spending has to be scaled back in order for our families to to afford even the smallest of items, such as food, gas, and home bills, but our spending shouldn't stop. What we should be focused on is allotting our money towards American made items that will support our factories, small business owners, and farmers here in the United States. We need to stop giving our money to other countries for products that our own country supplies. In an article written by PR news channel it states that we need to recycle our American dollars into our own American economy. Through this practice, consumers will begin to realize that we as a country do not need to look outside the box in order to restore strength to our economy. All the tools needed to make this happen are found in the practice of recycling American dollars within the confines of our nation's borders. The starting point begins with consumers understanding the power of "Be American, Buy American". (info@prnewschannel.com)
I have heard it said by others that spending money in economic down times is selfish and irresponsible, but it is how we are spending our money and where we are spending our money that matters. My wife and I have discussed our spending numerous times over the past few years and a common guideline that we use when we want to spend money is to sit down and decipher ours "needs" versus our"wants." This has allowed us the opportunity to more diligently recognize our spending habits. Supporting our economy and in turn our country is always a good thing. I certainly feel that this can also be taken out of context and people can start making unhealthy choices with their money as well. There is always a fine line and balances to every decision we make especially the decisions we make as a country that directly affect others around us. Americans have always come to each others aid in times of great need and I feel that this time of economic crisis is no different.
In conclusion, putting money into our economy is the right thing to do to nourish and rebuild what we have worked so hard to gain through the years of sacrifices and hard work. It is our patriotic responsibility to continue to nourish what our ancestors worked so hard to secure for us as Americans.
