Do you strive to buy products made in your own country as opposed to buying foreign products (within reason/if at all possible)?
>>
No, that's silly.
I buy what gives me the best value for my money.
>>
No. I have everything German. Because they brainwashed me.

I like to support domestic industry. And if that's not possible, I buy something from the other nordic countries.
>>
>>56130278
I honestly give zero fucks.
>>
>>56130278
I would try, but all my shit wouldn't work if I did.
>>
>>56130781
why? isn't that xenophobic?
>>
>>56130278
Yes. Not always, but I strive to.
>>
>>56130894
it's patriotic
>>
I do not buy chinese products if it's possible
>>
>>56130278
Russian products suck ass compared to Chinese
Yes you read that right
>>
Nah, even since weed man got elected I'm doing what I can to ensure this country burns. I make sure to never buy Canadian products or products from western countries when possible.
>>
>>56130924
that's silly, if you can get something better from another country then do it, no need to buy shitty or not so good products from your country
>>
Yes whenever possible but I'd pick Russian as a close second.
Russia and India are almost the same, dysfunctional ,corrupt but places close to my heart.

Case in point my ISP.

when it comes to food,ingredients and small items most people prefer the greek ones because they are actually better. Maybe some clothes too. But for electronic devices,cars etc always foreign stuff
>>
>>56130278
Yep, I always try to pick Aussie products particularly if I'm doing groceries.
>>
>>56130278
my country did not make anything except oil and weapon
>>
>>56130278
Depends on the product. These days different nations have different products they excel at. Japanese make great woodworking tools. The germans still make the best metalworking and power tools, except for precision indicators and micrometers, in which case Starrett in Massachusetts is tops.

Electronics all come from china anyway, but japan makes excellent DC motors.

I have a real soft spot for old Swedish cars and engines, though i own two austrian built motorcycles which are truly pieces of work.

Just buy the best quality shit. I'm not going to favor an import over american made shit outright, but I'm not going to buy american if there is a clearly superior product available from elsewhere.

>>56130278
this is different, most electronics are american but they're built en masse with cheap slave labour in china
