FTC: Made In The USA Comments Concerning Wayne Duncan--P894219 From: Wayne Duncan < wdscot@earthlink.net> To: HQ.HQ03(ANTITRUST) Date: 8/10/97 1:58pm Subject: "U.S.-made" I am a retired IBM'er with thirty years experience in the Materials World. I am currently a Director for the leading Integrated Materials Management Company in the United States. My current salary is well in excess of $100,000 per year. I provide the above profile for your consideration of my following comments. I did not want you to think I am a union activist or liberal/communist. I was raised under the concept of "World Peace through World Trade" but no longer believe this is accurate as currently practiced. I am not in support of a one world government or the attributes this would suggest in the re-leveling of wealth through out the world. I am also a strong believer in "truth". I shop for products advertising "Made In the USA" on the belief that supporting our home made goods supports our country and people. I will be disappointed if I see that "Made In the USA" is only a half truth. We need some credibility in our government and our advertising. I am apposed to any change in this labeling and will watch to see if my response is heard, or ignored. Please keep honesty in labeling and focus on the best interest of the people and not the corporations. |
