Bumper stickers would say 

"I buy foreign - its local to somebody"

or

"Buy fair trade: two parties agree on a price then trade, intervention-free" 

or, finally

"Nobody 2012" with really patriotic colors and campaign looking shit

If I were to put in money to have a few of these made, would you any of you want one? I have heard that making one offs of these is pricy, and its only slightly more costly to do a bunch. I don't mind paying for them, I just don't want 30 extra lying around and I figured you guys might like them. If you are interested, leave a comment, or if yo think they can be improved, I am open to that also.

I like these. But careful with the buying foreign. It's not unheard of to have people keying cars for slogans they disagree with.

Otherwise, I like the ideas.

Im hoping a sticker like this will knock some of the brain dead hipsters into economic sobriety. It seems like if you just read that, it would all the sudden click "Every time I buy local, I am not buying local from somewhere." or "every time I buy foreign, I am buying local - just not my local"

I could see why the fair trade would piss someone off, being that the bumper sticker doesn't present any new truth to the reader, but the buy local one just seems undeniable. I am probably being naive, though.

Maybe a picture of Jefferson and something like "Wanted  anarchist"

Of course, he's no anarchist, but if he were to run today on his platform he'd quickly be decried as an anarchist :P

Yeah, let's not advocate violence against elected officials. Or, for that matter, anyone.
