So is not supporting the Detroit based auto companies, but I guess it doesn't have any effect on you. I'm sure the jobs of your family,friends and yourself don't have any ties to the Detroit companies. I'm also sure your home<if you own one> hasn't see any drop. :rolleyes:

I don't want to get in to a whole thing here, but you honestly think the CEO's and big shots give a shit about where their stuff is biult? they are closing our plants and opening plants overseas!!! Whereas the "imports" are opening plants in N/A and keeping people working.
Here's my all-time favourite quote on the subject, read it, and seriously think about it-it makes great sense:

Profits = Small amount of money

USA workers at 'import' plant building cars+
USA workers designing 'import' cars+
USA workers making parts/suppliers for 'import' cars+
USA workers selling cars at 'import' dealership+
USA workers buying houses from 'import' job money+
USA workers paying taxes to the government+

= Big Money for US!

I think people miss the big picture

I'll also say that my brother-in-law makes parts for Chrysler, Ford and Toyota. And there are countless plants producing parts for "foreign" companies. You need to look at the situation with an open mind. Fack, I even heard that on the list of "UAW-approved cars" is the Toyota Camry, what does that say?????

That's pretty damn funny! I remember that old pot ad. Always best to lead by example. I just hope there is a single American company left by the time my 6 year old is ready to drive. We may be following in England's foot steps.
