No, that makes sense - I can't help thinking the same thing and I am an American. Years ago, I might have told you "Don't boycott unless you want Americans to be laid off and suffer." But as you pointed out, so many so-called American manufacturing jobs are not held by Americans. "Made in the USA" means nothing anymore unless you do the research to back it up.
I still believe in doing research before buying whenever possible - I think that's the best choice overall, no matter what your political ideals are.
Good thing you are Canadian/Londoner ... you won't get tossed in a secret prison for questioning our prez. I hope.
