I may be the only one on the list that feels this way, but I need to get my
two cents in...Please keep the discussion on the list directed towards FWL
issues and not politics or opinions of other non FWL issues...Thanks, Mike

Subject: Re: [FWDLK] Who out there.. Only buys American Cars?
The madness won't end. We adapt or get rolled over.
And just to clarify, most of those Jap cars are MADE HERE, with US
workers. NOT in Mexico or Canada. And it does help our economy, since
the US Mfg.'s are laying off (GM 25,000 Americans) and the foreign
Mfg.'s are hiring US workers.
Quite a few years ago, Congress passed a law that made it legal to
declare that a car with "Made in America" meant that it was produced
somewhere above Central America. That is Mexico, Canada, and.... Oh,
yeah, the USA.
Chevy for years was building cars in Canada and shipping them by rail
in to Janesville, Wis. with the Right outside Mirror not installed.
Then Union workers walked down lines of these cars all day long and
installed them. The MFG Plate said "Final Assy Point, Janesville, Wis.
And some Dummy said "I Bought a US car!!"
There are NO TV's made in the US and haven't been for many years....
the list goes on.
We're too poor to win!

I've made up my Mind ... Just don't 'member 'boutwut!!
If things get better with age, we should be almost Magnificent!!
EARTH FIRST! We'll stripmine the other planets later.
Why is the alphabet in that order? Is it because of that song?
The meek shall inherit the earth --they are too weak to refuse. After
the Fat Cats are done with it!

Tell all who are looking at Honda, Toyota etc.. to keep the money here..
Not in Nagasaki..
BUT!
Slowly, more and more items are being built out of the US.. I understand
cheaper labor costs.. But come on.. Advertise it as such.. They don't
even market it as that.. they just try to go heads up.. Play the Patriot
card.. I just don't get it..
Chevy closing more factories... Ford having more cars made in Canada and
Mexico.. Mopar now Daimler Chrysler.. (The Dodge bros are turning in
there graves!!))Toyota building cars in the US.. Getting into NASCAR!!
UGggg.. when will the madness end!!
