Is everyone completely confident that all is 100% safe?

The subject is exceptionally important IMO.

I believe some people are lulled by the misconception that his (or
her) government wouldn't allow him to destroy his own society. I'm
convinced that our current leaders couldn't care less. To me, choosing
the origin of products I buy is like voting with my money. Instead of
voting for the same old partisan politician, I use money to vote for
either democracy or communism. If we vote for communism too much, then
our government will be able to put the blame for the resulting
disaster squarely on us, saying "you were free to do whatever you
wanted, you could have chosen democracy but you chose otherwise".
People need to wake up. Sometimes there is no choice nowadays, but I
do pay attention and will pay a small amount more for a product made
in a democratic country.

The result could be something other than directly destroying our own
economies, I think the destruction of Democratic economies through
outsourcing and generally so-called globalism could lead to overt
aggression against others.

At the same time, don't believe the "globalism" garbage. Leaders of
the free world have and could have us trade amongst ourselves,
forever. Communist countries cannot compete, we've proved that
already. Globalism is probably just a way for the bigger companies to
beat up on the smaller companies.
