Persönlich würde ich meine Kaufentscheidung auch nicht einzig und allein vom Merkmal US/Nicht-US/EU abhängig machen. Es gibt massenhaft Faktoren, die je nach persönlichen Vorlieben und Produktgruppe eine Kaufentscheidung beeinflussen können: Vegan, Bio, lokale Produktion, ökologisch, Haltbarkeit, Reparierbarkeit, Ressourcenschonung, faire Löhne, keine Kinderarbeit, Sicherheit, Geschmack/Gefallen, Preis...
Ich finde die Europa-Bewegung gut, fände es aber teilweise auch am Ziel vorbeigeschossen, wenn man zum Beispiel verstärkt Nestlé-Produkte kaufen würde, um einen US-Hersteller zu vermeiden.
