Prescription Safety Glasses Online Made in U.S.A.

The subject of U.S. employment loss in the manufacturing sector has been an issue of critical concern for some time now and one with global effect. For a variety of reasons, the United States has experienced record job loss in manufacturing during this century, causing serious economic impact that has ravished entire communities.

“America lost 5.7 million, or 33%, of its manufacturing jobs in the 2000s,” wrote Robert Atkinson in a March 14, 2013, article for Industry Week. “This is a rate of loss unprecedented in U.S. history—worse than in the 1980s, when BusinessWeek warned of deindustrialization and worse than the rate of manufacturing job loss experienced during the Great Depression. While U.S. manufacturing has clawed back, regaining about half a million of those lost manufacturing jobs since 2010, there’s little doubt that the 2000s constituted the worst decade for manufacturing employment in the Republic’s history.”

As the results of this “lost decade” become more and more apparent, U.S. consumers have become increasingly aware of where and with whom they do business, and often strive to patronize those companies that employ U.S. workers and manufacture their goods in country. At the same time, online shopping has become a prominent, convenient, and efficient sales platform that is revolutionizing the way we shop. A significant portion of goods sold online are produced and shipped from overseas – a good business model for company profit, to be sure, but a model that doesn’t take the decline of U.S. jobs into consideration.
