The mom and pop factor.
Back when I was young and we would go traveling alot of the places we would eat were mom and pop joints. When we went to shop in stores while traveling, once again, mom and pop joints. You would walk in to these places and see their children working or playing or hanging out. Those places had a certain feeling to them as well.
That feeling....was spirit.
You could feel spirit because the places like that attracted good spirit to good spirit. Negative people can't allow places like that to exist. So they tax them out, eminent domain them out, buy them out, shut them down, and in extreme cases kill them out. In order to control it all.
Everyone with an eye to see and a little attention paid over a long span of time, could see the systematic elimination of the mom and pops. Worst in my opinion was the eradication of the mom and pop industiral sector. We as a people will soon feel the ramifications of that by the way unless we start reintroducing that back into our system. As well as mom and pops in all areas. Add to that the concious effort need to be aware and support these types of places. In doing this you automaticly support the "made in the USA".
But to do this you also have to factor in the added concious efforts to just say no to "made in china" or "made anywhere else other than the USA" products.
If you harken back to the news reports of when america was the leader in everything, and america was great, and america was floating in the black, you will find mom and pop operations, compared to corporate america today. Also all the mom and pop products seemed to be more sturdy and durable than corporation fodder products.
The proof is in all those weird product museums. Find which mom and pop places got taken over in whatever manner, then line up the products in order of date they came out, and do a comparison. Words like "solid state" actually meant something back then. My house has stuff from my great grandmother's time still in use. Because they last and were built to last.
Americans had also an isolationist view up until pearl harbor then it changed, but before it did americans kept american money in america for the most part. They bought american. They did not allow people to sway them with this pie chart or that demigraphic. they kept it in america because that is a big part of how america has stayed solvent, and they knew it. So why did we forget that? OR was it propagandawhacked?
Basicly what I am saying is that it seems to me, that if we as a people want to lessen alot of our problems, that that old way is a way to go.
Mom and pop + more spirit = less corporation + less lobby money for the satan monkeys
On a side note though I would also like to add that the mom and pop must further be scrutinized to see if they are of a negative or postivie spirit. This should translate into how you feel. Did you feel like you walked into your grandparents house or did you feel like you just want to leave.
As a result of applying this in my own life there are places that I have literaly driven an hour out of my way sometimes for the food or the manfactured item, The food was very good, or the item still works, the money stayed in this country from my end.
I am aware that certain raw materials and ingredients can not be gotten in america, and people need to go outside for them. I am just saying whenever possible, when you can observe it, then make an effort to keep the money circulating in this country.
Also the more mom and pops start to spring up again the less need there is to go outside the country for stuff.
Corporations want to leave the country? Are those the same ones that helped to ruin this country? They are? Then why do you whine when another decides to leave this country? Good riddance. What they still have an office in this country? Well ignore them maybe they will go away for good. Your company left you high and dry? Open a mom and pop. Form a mom and pop network.
Take back your country and phase them out.
