when we as Americans dont buy our own products, how can the management or the workers, union or not, be blamed if a company closes plants or just goes belly up all together? I never have and never will buy an inport car. how many union-bashers can say that? Dont bring "quality" into it. i am absolutely perfectly happy with the way "OUR" cars are built and i have seen first hand that they are less expensive to maintain. There was a O driver that told me that "we" used to haul auto parts to Detroit but lost the contract, then commented that he didnt know why. some people dont get it but i dont understand why they dont want to get it.
