There is a lot of confusion these days about what constitutes an American product, even though the Federal Trade Commission has given (mostly) clear guidelines which include defining “Made in the USA” with such phrases as “all or virtually all made in the United States.” Still, many companies peddling foreign products use all kinds of marketing tricks to entice patriotic shoppers.
For example, some companies plaster their product packaging with American flags and use patriotic words or phrases like the simple “USA” (usually accompanying an American flag) or “Distributed in the USA.” These devious marketing attempts do absolutely nothing to indicate that a product is “Made in the USA.” It is also an insult to those of us who try to keep our money in America through our consumer purchases.
One way to use the American flag in a way that actually matters is through U.S. veteran Rudi Ali’s website BuyOurUSA. Rudi Ali’s answer to alleviate the confusion is very straightforward. The more flags (one through five) applied to a product on the www.BuyOurUSA.com website, the more American a product really is. One flag means less American, two means more American, and so on. If five flags are designated for an item, that indicates it is among the most American you can buy.
The flag ranking of every product on the website includes considerations such as the percentage of American material, domestic labor, and national ownership (American-owned vs. foreign-owned) across over 1,233,000 (yes, that is over 1 million) manufacturers, distributors, and vendors in the supply chain. More than 117,000 of the products have over 3 flags, more than 3,500 have over 4 flags, but only 20 have 5 flags, which highlights how difficult it can be to buy a product that is 100% American.
