What do you guys think about this new tax rebate?

You know what would help "Joe Consumer" buy more American made products?? More taxing on import products and give incentive for companies to make products here in the US again, but that would require bipartisan effort which we know is not going to happen anytime soon.

I simply do not see how this would help by playing with market demand. Cheaps goods are produced somewhere else to help the bottom line of American companies. The consumer wants cheap goods at cheap prices. Overall, it helps American companies bottom lines, which creates more ventures for more jobs.

I can't see how this is a good idea when the weak dollar is already making America become a more attractive destination to manufacturing.
