Dixie respectfully requests you considerthe following points whendecidingto buy a domestic product or an import:Many imported products do not include the manufactures name.As aresult, it is very difficult to identify and trace responsibility if a failure or injury occurs. Therefore, the user has little recourse.According to an article in the June 15, 2005 USAToday, imports thatillegallyinfringe on current domestic copyrights, patents and trademarksdiscourage innovation and cost American jobs. Similar articles from July 5, 2005 and March 22, 2004 report that import manufacturers often pay $1.00 per day or less to employees and have little regard for the environment or the health and safety of their employees. We at Dixie Industries are confident in our efficiencies and productivity, aswell as our ability to be competitive, so long as the competition conforms to the same rules and standards.
