A few years ago, PlanetMagpie published “The Argument for Reshoring American IT,” a white paper that outlined the drawbacks and dangers of IT offshoring, as well as the economic and security benefits of bringing it home.
To help Americans show their support for reshoring, PlanetMagpie came up with the “reshore your IT” bumper sticker.

Since then, we have mailed bumper stickers to over 1,500 people across 47 states. Many of these reshoring supporters include messages with their sticker requests. We learn a lot from these messages, including locations, personal experiences, and enthusiastic support for reshoring.
Here's a list of comments we’ve received. They're divided into five categories for your reference.
