Made in the U.S.A.
After reading the "InBev purchases Anheuser-Busch" post, that got me wondering and worrying. For the life of me, I can't think of a major company manufacturing anything in the US. This trend is very disturbing because in the near future, we will be importing everything and exporting only Cash. Let's make a list of all products manufactured here in the USA.
BTW, remember in the early 80's when there was campaign's encouraging buying US made products.

InBev anounced they intend to keep all the US A-B breweries open. Apparently, that is consistent with their purchases of other brands, like Beck's, Bass and Stella Artois. |

It depends on what you mean by "Made in the USA." We still make 16 million autos in the US, but many are for Japanese brands using parts from all over the world. Japanese cars made in Japan consist of parts made all over the globe, including the United States.
Boeing builds and assembles hundreds of aircraft in Washington state and elsewhere, but, like the auto industry, the supply chain is global. Airbus works the same way, in reverse. "Made in XXX" doesn't really mean the same thing anymore. |
