As one by one our corporations bite the dust unable to compete in
the world's marketplace,they have first embarked on a spree to outsource our jobs to cheap labor overseas and, if that fails to generate profits, to beat and grab the resources of the weaker countries.That has been the history of our country since the time this continent was settled and we can expect nothing less from our current crop of the equivalent of cattle rustlers,xenophobes and killers of Native Americans.The more things change etc.

National health care would take about $1,500 out of the price of every car, or better yet, they could keep some of that and use it to do more R&D into better, more appealing, more reliable, more fuel efficient cars.
