Build in America

[BloodofJason]

Are Republicans not American? I am getting very upset with my fellow Republicans. I don’t get it, I have been Republican all my life and I support America 100 percent. Lately I have noticed that a lot of these vote for Bush stickers have been on Import cars. And it seems that most of you here are Republican and support sending cheap jobs over seas. We need to keep these jobs in America. I know companies will make more money by paying workers in other countries less. But this is destroying the American product, made in the USA doesn’t mean shit any more. These companies are basically giving money that should stay in America to countries that have many issues. We are helping them while screwing ourselves at the same time. What needs to be done is we start making good quality products right here in the USA and export more then we Import. How many of you would buy a car made in IRAQ right now?? But we seem to buy cars made from Japan and Germany a whole lot. Why do we give our money to countries have a history of killing our people. This is America Damn it, we need to buy and work here DON’T GIVE OUR MONEY TO ANYONES ELSE.

Sorry I am just angry. I normally don’t post about politics. But when we have high unemployment in America and we still send jobs over seas I get mad.


Maybe we need to lower minimum wage, I sure as hell would rather make 2 bucks an hour then have no job or be on welfare.

That is good we have import cars being made in America. But when an American buys one of these cars where does the money go?

Same place on the items you buy. I bet if I went through your home, I would find things made by Sony, Hitachi, or other Japanese companies. Even the computer your using to get on the internet has parts made in japan and china in it.

In the auto industry, its Unions that are driving the costs of cars up. The American auto industry has to offset their contracts in the price of their cars. Japanese companies dont have unions, and their products are better. Why? Because in a Union your protected, if you slack you will keep your job. In a Japanese company, if you slack and dont put forth a effort, you get fired. What does this difference do? In motiviates workers for Japanese firms to work harder and maintain high quality, where as the union shops dont do this. In Union shops you can slack and when management talks to you about it, you go crying to the union.

In my opinion Unions need to go the way of the doodoo.

Why should anyone be paid 25-30 dollars a hour to hang a door on a car?

The American Owned Dealership, the autoworkers who built that car, the Automaker itself.

I think you need to open your eyes to the detailed truth and not what you have been hearing in the media. Obviously, you are becoming part of the weak minded flock the democrats are counting on voting in November. Wake up and get your facts straight. It's economics.....not politics.....
