Domestic Cars vs Imports

[Howie Feltersnatch]

I am a tier 2 automotive supplier and therefore I go into auto plants all the time. Every time I go into one of these plants I see tool boxes with the obligatory "Buy American" bumper sticker pasted on the side. The thing that is funny to me is that while the auto companies want you to "buy American," they don't. The vast majority of machines that make the parts for your vehicles are made overseas. Most are from Germany, England and now Japan and China. So if they don't buy American why the F should I? Now don't get me wrong, I'll take their money all day long, I just don't appreciate the contradiction. Besides, our Equinox's enging was made in China, the transmission was made in Japan and it was assembled in Canada...thank goodness I "Bought American."

i'll exalt you despite your avatar....
