Krause purchased a Toyota Tundra. I am sure he is completely
responsible
for those 30,000 employees losing their job.
He should be ashamed of himself.
Then bottom line, he and his ilk *are* responsible for those lost
jobs.
Hang on a minute, Scupper. I thought you right wing fags believe in
personal
responsibility. It sure seems that way when you're slamming the
welfare
system. But now, GM gets a pass because not enough customers want
their
cars?
It's more a red state blue state thingy. Real Americans live in red
states, buy GM or Ford, and support their country. Them leftists
living
in blue states allowed to drive make payments on foreign tinkle toys.
Bottom line...the Looney Left does not support their country or
traditional American values. They weaken American at every turn.

That's because righties are lemmings, lefties are not. A right winger
would buy American no matter what, because they're told to do so. A
left winger would use their brains, and know that some of the foreign
models are more dependable, and better equipped for less money.
And then bitch about the jobs going overseas.

My Tacoma was built in California. IIRC, the engine block came from
Japan, but Toyota does that to protect my job. It guarantees that the
vehicle will get me to work many more times than another brand.




I recall reading several years ago that Toyota was planning to manufacture
some of its truck engines in the USA, too, but I haven't followed that
story, so I have no idea whether it took place.

Some of us realize that if the US had a decent program of national health
insurance and pension programs, as most other modern nations do, our
manufacturers would be more competitive.



Say again?

Harry doesn't realize that someone has to pay for the healthcare coverage.
The cost of healthcare for auto makers will be no less under their current
plan, than a national healthcare plan. It probably would be more under a
national healthcare plan.

The way we hear it up here...GM executives are crying about the
expensive retired employee health plan.
