have to agree with you. Though isn't Oerdin a Ford defender and not GM. Or does he defend them both.Originally posted by Spec
Well, one day or another, Oerdin is going to have to face the fact that american cars suck today, and that the 60's-70's are over.

I can't believe that nobody here is worrying about Midwestern unionized autoworkers losing their jobs because of Toyota.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

Assembling. Not much manufacturing.
The important work is done in Japan. Not a unionized workforce.

So sticking the bits of metal together isn't as big a part of the process as making them in the first place?Comment

Yes, it is. Not all manufacturing is foundry work.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
