MM is right - Americans are terrible at boycotts, unfortunately price is the name of the game regardless of where bought or origin of manufacture.
Take all of the "Buy-America" campaigns - it has done nothing to stop the ever-increasing trade deficits for foriegn goods.
When it comes to consumerism - Americans are the greatest hypocrites on earth.
