This is a damn shame! Dear Dirty America reported a similar story months ago (apparently it’s still an issue).

I don’t buy procter and Gamble product because the packaging doesn’t say where it’s made. So I assume its not in this country. So now I won’t buy those brand of cosmetics either. I try very hard to make sure what I buy is made in USA. Good Bye P&G!

Comment on JOBS ACT TO BOOST STARTUP FIRMS by Craig Harlamert

Craig Harlamert — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 15:58:56 +0000

I’d sure like a real loan; the banks and other groups are not loaning money unless the products being loaned for have a 2 year or longer traceable record of sales.. ok for most but it stops me from launching a new never before seen or sold item..
Real start ups need real money.
I have groups ready willing and able to participate in all aspects of commerce for my innovations, except the group to start it off by funding the distribution of manufactured shelve able products. The one group that has to be in place and invest to start the real money earning of all groups involved.

When you make it so that those groups, able to loan money, really do loan money to me then I’ll be happy!
My plans are to be a “Merchant Supplier”; that is I/we have a professional relationship with all aspects of the businesses involved.
Facts: Manufactures are ready after seeing the designs made professionally. Manufactures have made over 300 products for free for us to sample the market leaders of retail. We did that. The packagers are ready; and can package, print, label, Bar Code, RFID systems also are ready. Storage warehouse system is ready. Marketing is ready. Forbes, Hoovers, and many more can participate for modern systems of sales on a huge level with these products that have a global market niche.
It’s simple for the next group, all they have to do is invest and collect money from investments and profits.
Problem is that investors want a track record and new ideas don’t have a track record of sales to project time lines of repayment.
Solution is that an International Finance Company has agreed to pay an advance on products in warehouse receiving of retailers with my innovations in shelve able forms..that is they will pay us before the products sell, and/or are even on the shelves to be purchased. That’s how much they believe in the products and the places we will put them. 80% of the future profits with this system is more than what investors require with normal standard repayment systems..so when an investor invests in my plans they will be repaid faster than normal and it’s simply a one time investment and a one time lump sum repayment. $25,000 – $2,500,000 can be repaid with the 80% advance of profits within one year. The $25,000 can be done inside of 3 months. This amount will only make 50,000 products. But it’s a start, then the finance company will invest and we will go globally with them. They have connections and do business of this nature in 150+ Countries and have been in Business over 100 years.
So where is the real money that will make the real products that the real retailers have said they want to sell?
If and when you have the money to loan, we have the plans and the product lines that will sell Globally ready to be made and distributed and you will be repaid and have money earned for loaning us the money within one year!

Comment on Chinese copycats challenge U.S. small businesses by Jean Kay

Jean Kay — Sat, 31 Mar 2012 17:06:49 +0000

Oh, the pains and heartaches that Inventors (small business inventors) endure while obtaining USPTO Patents or Registered Trademarks. “Copy cats: are thriving everywhere, even right here at home!
if the owner of the patent does not have the thousands of dollars to cover the costs for an International Patent (world-wide) and can only cover the thousands of dollars for a US Patent, this type of patent infringement and “copy cats” will continue.
An answer to this problem, including the costs for International Patents would be for our government USPTO agency and the attorneys involved, should “lower” the costs of these type patents so that small business inventors have an opportunity from such theft of their “sweat and tears” better mouse traps.
Like many very large corporations, right here in America, “copy cat” the inventors products, knowing full well the small “mom ‘n pop” self invested business owner doesn’t have the thousands of dollars to fight them in court over patent infringements!
What is wrong with this picture??? More reasons, why the USA continues to provide fewer and fewer individuals becoming successful entrepreneurs. Without financial backing to proceed with court action, we the patented inventor must tuck our head between our legs and let the “big boys” get ever bigger!!! Keeping the small business owner struggling to make ends meet or go bankrupt, as a result.
There must be a reasonable solution to this problem that is so prevalent across America, which results in fewer and few jobs available here at home!

I learned a new word today that gives me hope. Reshoring is a term that is music to my ears. When we get our manufacturing mentality back this country will finally be back to making money! Thanks, Eric, for reinforcing the re-revolution of industry that is coming our way and how it will make a difference. Yes!
