I boycott american products because they simply are not worth their price

That's a pretty Liberal take from someone using a "Lemmygrad" account.

I don't see how it's liberal, Marxists don't take a vow of poverty or reject the laws of economics. US-made products generally are higher priced compared to equivalent performance due to Imperialism inflating costs of production in the Global North.
