2013 A New Year for Made in the U.S.A.…
It’s the beginning of a New Year and the official start
of 2013…
Re-Generation-Angeleno.com would like everyone to keep positive and imagine
the best for everyone. There is power in positive…I for one plan to keep
thinking on that note…can’t hurt can it?!
Re-Generation-Angeleno.com
has been a bigger animal than I thought it would be, but the never ending process is has been pure
joy.
I have been doing so much
research to get a better idea of the history and background of the items I will be selling. It’s an
enormous, never ending process to say the least. But the part I am finding
rewarding is the endless research of SO many different pieces of Vintage Fashion,
jewelry, war memorabilia, house wears, watches, cufflinks, music..It’s really mind
boggling!
Now I know why Collectors narrow down their fields of
expertise! Lol
One of the interesting details
I’ve noticed is that almost all of these Vintage Items are, Made in the U.S.A…
Now back in the day…I never
gave it much thought about “where” my things came from…it really didn’t even
occur to me. I guess I assumed everything was from the USA, how naïve could we
have all been. Not to think that one day we would all wake up and find that we
have outsourced ourselves. I try to be conscious of the products I buy but it’s
not easy practically every store around here in Los Angeles, are filled with
products produced overseas.
Now that I know firsthand
what it’s like to be a corporate out casted by-product…I have seen the unjust corporate downsizing in my own neighborhood of DTLA. I have watched my
peers being laid off while suspect Corporations outsourced their jobs to other
countries to obtain the never ending search for more $ profit. Profits that eventually go into the 1% pockets. Everyone should
have the opportunity to succeed in life, and all over the world. I wonder, whatever happened
that made the USA forget about the pride of Made in the USA? Seeing this on your label used to bring pride to the people…It’s something that I
forgot to think about…all these years I have been in the apparel industry adding to this insult to the USA. Along with millions of people I too wear the clothes…but I am sad
to say I forgot to think about the labels…I think it’s something most of us have forgotten.
So I say we bring back the
Made in the USA in 2013,
Pride in the USA….all you have to do is read your labels!
DTLA is my neighborhood and I
feel it’s time for us to take it back
and provide for each other in our own
neighborhoods.
So Support your LOCAL Business….Promote
your neighbors and lets Re-Generate our own
neighborhoods…it all begins at home anyways!
Re-Generation-Angeleno.com is
coming soon…..
Made in the U.S.A...say it again and get used to it...
I feel another regeneration coming our way...
