Supporting Local Talent

For all the crap that may come out of America's Got Talent, you see often times a tiny jewel of a person who has amazing talent. The show tries to spin it that they discovered this new talent because they held auditions. This is only meant to lend them credibility for a show that only pumps out singers while advertising that the show is open to all acts. These people who only sing in the shower or only sing at church, and come out with amazing voices is something that we do not always hear about. A lot of times you have local bands who are singing about issues and topics that really matter. But the same concept of supporting a local band is the same as supporting US companies. Supporting local stores instead of big box stores helps the local economy, and has a direct impact on a local business in your town. If you spend $100 a week at Wal-mart, you are not going to see Wal-mart suddenly start hiring in your local town. But if you spend your money at a local store, you are more likely to see a direct impact in your life by seeing that small company hire new employees.
