        Obama advisors says he wont respect half of his promises, that what was told to Primer Minister Harper.

        also, if they cut NAFTA and protect, we Sell the oil to china instead it was made clear.

        Protectionism only reduced economy, weird when border were open the economy boomed


        it was just to pleased some powered tripping old union leaders and get their votes.

          very true. The workhorses of the utility companies, municipalities, and such use domestic. And not without good reason. One quick example. You look under the F150, and you'll see a 9.75 rear-end. You look under the 'full size' Japanese competitor such as the Nissan Titan and I don't even think it's an 8.8. The whole rear end is dinky. Very Japaneseish.

                  a Tacoma has a reliability of one star out of 5.

                  but for the big japs, attacking the Pickups were just a message to the big three telling them, hey we can shake your nest anytime.

                            The auto industry from manufacturing to sales must come to the realization that the period of easy credit and buy now, pay later is over. Blaming americans for purchasing a vehicle of their choice will not solve any problems. American manufacturers need to put a vehicle out there that is in higher demand then their competition. Burying their head in the sand and going to the government for a hand out will only hurt them long term.

                            Things that need to be done:
                            1. The UAW needs to make major concessions and renegotiate these ridiculous packages they have.
                            2. The big 3 need to lay off a significant part of their workforce in anticipation of slower auto sales which is inevitable.
                            3. Get back to basics. Producing products that the market can't afford is silly. Produce what the market needs without having to offer money back, free finanacing...

                            I know you might not want to hear this but the industry, foreign and domestic is in for a tough period ahead. Be smart with what you can controland you will land on your feet.
                            A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have. -Thomas Jefferson
