Of course a week from now I may be ready to strangle him.
For thousands of years men have felt the irresistible urge to go to sea, and many of them died. Things got better after they invented boats.

Successful people do what makes sense. We now have the highest corporate tax rate in the world, so folks are doing what makes sense.

All the engineering, design, and advertising certainly came from Detroit. Although people forget that assembly line workers do not just dream up and piece cars together, there actually are well paid, educated people that can also loose their jobs if too many of you keep buying foreign.

I am not saying that assembly workers are worthless, or uneducated. Just saying there are others at stake as well and the "others" out way the assembly workers something like 8 - 1. Just remember that next time you buy your Honda "build in the USA", the majority of that money is going back overseas.

Did you see Chrystlers Olympic commercials? " Imported from Detroit" The slogan just reminded me how much of an American car is foreign parts. You really are buying an import from Detroit.

Apparently giving and taking is in the eye of the beholder. Good to see you back here Eric.
