Well, the way to keep it from going to China is simple: don't buy any more "stuff" with it. Save it. Invest it in stock, buy a mutual fund or even a government bond.
You want to stimulate the economy, plunk that money INTO the economy by investing in a good US company. One especially good stock to buy right now is Garmin. It's poised to double or even triple over the next few years. Before long, everything that moves is gonna have GPS in it - and Garmin is leading the pack.
