Thread: Any Ideas on which companies we SHOULD patronize?

Hi, I am wondering what companies we could SUPPORT in their efforts to avoid hiring illegals. has anyone already made some choices like that when avoiding the SELL-OUT companies?

Tim Binh, Thelmahopkins and I were thinking of sending out mailers to companies, with the good news that they would get free promotion on the Boycott website if they are meeting certain criteria.

I think that positive message to the "good guys" would be most effective.

But how do we know they are really not hiring illegals? What kind of criteria could we ask them to meet so we could be sure?

I was reading today that TRUE VALUE hardware is having a difficult time competing with Loew's and Home Depot. They were talking about the ways they try to surpass - ie more personalized service to keep loyal customers.

Perhaps we could offer them free promotion as THE store to patronize for the anti-illegal, anti-outsourcing crowd.

Of course, it may be too politically incorrect for them to be known as the PATRIOT store, which the enemy would quickly turn into "the racist" store.

Any ideas out there?

We need to boycott, send them flyers with many signatures, to the ones' that use illegal labor and that caters to them

There is a website called BuyAmerican.com or something like that. Their prices are way high and there aren't a lot of products available but they at least have American made products sold by Americans.

It's good to know of the companies that are trying to be responsible.

Products made in America - by Americans - might cost more at the checkout.

We all have to realize we will pay one way or another.

Those 'cheap' goods made either by illegals carry very high hidden costs.

im working with FIRE to hopefully get up a site that list good companies to patronize. both local and national. Just don't patronize ANY that support La Raza, like Bank of America, McDonalds, Burger King and Wal-Mart

http://www.wehirealiens.com/default.asp is a site that lists companies nationwide who hire aliens. Might want to go there as a start. This site is linked from FIRE.

Thank you, Angry American, and welcome.

Yes, that site has some good posts for Companies to patronize. Do you have any personal experiences with companies that you can recommend?

dragons5, I and some others are setting up a reference forum and blog site regarding this - maybe you'd like to see it before you go to the trouble of another site. - or maybe you'd like to link to our new forum?
