Buy blue vs. Outsourcing?

[Patiod]

Just got off the phone with LL Bean, and it was such a pleasure to hear American voices.

Don't know where LL Bean's political donations go, but which is more important to you - that a company is not a Republican donor, or that a company is continuing to employ Americans in customer service jobs?

Note: Locally owned trumps all in my book - I make a point to patronize local businesses first - don't care if Mr. X is a huge Republican - I'll buy at his hardware store before I'll buy from a chain. I don't eat at chain restaurants because I am blessed to lives somewhere where I don't have to. If I have to purchase something at a chain, then it will be a blue one, like B&N, Costco, BB&Beyond, etc.
