While I agree, and while I admire your moxy, I'm rather pessimictic about it happening. 
 
It's like all these people who say we need to put Americans back to work, and despite their red-white-and-blue patriotism, they're shopping at the giant retailer who imports all their stuff from China.  When asked why they don't shop local and buy American, they complain it costs too much.  Then when their job is outsourced, they blame Washington.
 
The average consumer just wants it cheap and easily available.
