huw wrote budd cochran wrote no its about getting america to get off its lard butt and take back its industry but that would mean unions taking wage cuts and the epa being told to shut up and suck on a pine tree. if you want to buy american it needs to be owned and built here. japan and germany didnt lose ww ii they just waited and bought us off. thats put me off jaguar volvo saab land rover ford vauxhall and all the other american owned brands we buy in europe then. f*** um foreign things. well buy european domestic products like renault fiat and peugeot instead. but wait how does nationalism and protectionism help all those american ford and gm brands oh it doesnt it guarantees even bigger losses for them. perhaps americans only believe in free trade when the going is good for them yes that is probably it. fact is there is only one way to stem those losses at ford and gm and that is for them to become more efficient and trade their way out. it can be done. just look at the example of nissan which under french management has been transformed from imminent bancruptcy to a modern success story in less than ten years. there is nothing magical about japanese or german industry. just look at the present debacle at mitsubishi which daimler/chrysler could not turn around. no america needs to rein in its trade freedoms. its become too lax in allowing other countries to bring their stuff to america while putting rediculous tariffs on american imported goods. if you want a global recession where you are absolutely guaranteed to have fewer sales and total business failures then certainly go protectionist. if you want continued relitive prosperity and employment then become competitive and grow your economy. there is no stopping china and other major competitors becoming more prosperous because they are coming around to the american way of doing business. if enough trade is done both ways then both economies win. obviously america has more to lose and china has more to win but what you need is a win/win situation. it is inevitable though that china will become a stronger economy than the usa in the medium term. huw why is it inevitable global recession its time for america to quit supporting dictatorships and communistic governments that milk the life out of their peoples while packing the pockets of the elite few. cut them loose and let them flounder without american monies. agreed!!! it is embarassing to see our people in new orleans still not getting the help they need while this country send billions of dollars around the world to aid other countries. that includes that sand pit as well. roy .

max dodge wrote perhaps you think that is a real pounding but reality tells me that use in the states can be very harsh to a car that isnt designed here in the states. lol. yes you find it funny i find it sad. in general an asian designed vehicle will last maybe five years without major needs. you really need to get out ! in asia ppl cant afford to replace cars willy-nilly. id expect some of the cars on indian roads easily to be 20 yrs old. they dont rust that much over there actually. as for the roads - well until youve driven through a few indian pot-holes you havent experienced how bad roads can really be. graham .
