On the subject of foreign made automobiles…

<rant>While this great nation grants you the choice to purchase a domestic or foreign made automobile, make the right choice, purchase American made. This is particularly true in the Detroit area. If I hear one more person who drives a foreign vehicle that lives in the state of Michigan complaining about our current economic situation, I’m going to explode. Michigan’s economy is driven by the auto industry. Whether or not you directly work for one of the big 3 or a supplier of the big 3, your job likely depends on the strength of the domestic auto industry. Pull your heads out of your asses people: buy American made.

When you purchase a foreign made automobile, you forfeit your right to bitch about Michigan’s poor economic status. When you lose your job, when the value of your home decreases, when the quality of your child’s education suffers because the automobile industry is tanking: don’t complain to me about it. I won’t have sympathy for you. When you can’t find a job, I’ll be there watching and laughing.

When I lose my job because the domestic auto industry implodes, I’m going to kick your foreign automobile loving ass.</rant>

  • To take it one step further, buy from the Big 3. Buying a Toyota made in Alabama or Tennessee or wherever they are made these days does not help a single person in Michigan, but does send profit to Japan.

    Nice to hear an Olde Regulator reprezentin’
