Fascinating thread.A question that may have no correct answer.If the people who have commented here were all in congress, we would all be better off.
We should do exactly what the Federal Reserve tells us to do.

The government should let everyone everywhere bid on their contracts. If an American company doesn't win, the government should not buy the item, have an independent analysis conducted to find out why the American companies in the field can't compete, and if government and it's goofy assed regulations is found to be the problem, they should be required to fix the problem and then put the contract up for bids again. If they can't fix the problem, they shouldn't have the contract filled at all, even if it means their cars or computers or copiers or whatever konk out on them and they have to do without.
We can't let them redirect the debate back to Red/Blue. Rand Paul's filibuster served as a clarion call, and opened eyes to the real divide--liberty v. tyranny. Everyone saw the president stall twenty-four hours before the AG confirmed we still have Constitutional due process. Don't let them turn this back into 'Left'/'Right' dogmaganda.
We, the People--'Red' and 'Blue'--must hang together or surely we will hang seperately.
"I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them. It is not to inaugurate new programs, but to cancel old ones that do violence to the Constitution, or that have failed their purpose, or that impose on the people an unwarranted financial burden. I will not attempt to discover whether legislation is "needed" before I have first determined whether it is constitutionally permissible. And if I should later be attacked for neglecting my constituents' "interests," I shall reply that I was informed that their main interest is liberty and that in that cause I am doing the very best I can." - Barry Goldwater
what if americans demanded too high a price as a racket?
..this is the darkest timeline..It was too weird to live, and too rare to die - hunter s. thompson .
Then the government would be able to do a lot less, and I assume most of us would be cheering that.
All of us?
If there's only one American company that can bid, then someone has gotten themselves a monopoly. And who do you think created the policies that led to that company being able to have a monopoly?

This is the wrong question to ask. It should be "Should the US Government buy anything?" The answer is no. They should ask for donations. (the IRS already has a mechanism for "patriotic donations") In reality, the government doesn't buy anything (at least not at this point in time)-they use credit, with citizens and holders of US debt paying for it.
My music/art page is here"government is the enemy of liberty"-RPThat which doesn't kill me has made a grave tactical error
This too.
