Would try to support the US, but if its something Union driven, they can go to hell for driving up the prices in the first place.
this is an odd thought. Why would you try to support the US? Its confusing b/c you want to support the US but not US workers. 
I try to support small businesses. I should have clarified.

But not if the workers negotiate with management as one unit?

I don't like or support unions, why is that hard to understand? I partially blame them for why our economy is in the shitter.

Private unions are much weaker than they were during the period when our economy wasn't shit.

Nothing. Assuming everything is equal in quality and whatnot, paying more for it would be an artificial construct and further destroy the free market.
Now, if it's a higher quality product, well then, that's a different story.

Hammer I agree, but you are in hardcore lefty territory here, and most cannot understand the difference between unions and workers.
