Foreign cars

I am not anti-foreign. I am pro-american and unless youre walking around with blinders on, this country is sinking fast and if we dont do something to correct it, because god knows our elected officials wont, we are done for. and i didnt say what you are quoting me as saying. I said everything i buy is american unless i have no option to buy a product that is american. your statement that buying foreign over domestic "won't change anything" just goes to show where the ignorance truly lies. Although, your statments wasnt completely off. I do agree with "What needs to change is the mentality of the average American." And finally, my thread and statement is un-american. Interesting. the only thing more American I have ever done than going out of my way to buy things that keep money in this country to try and save us from ruining ourselves is voluntarilly walking into a Marine Corps recruiting office and giving myself and my service to my country. But go ahead and call me ignorant. it doesnt make you right. just.... what's the word. Ignorant. Thanks though.

I have great respect for our military. However, just because you served, it isn't the only thing that makes you an American. Let's keep these two issues separate.

Then YOU need to take the blinders off. I believe A-bodyJoe and YellowDartDave explained it clearly. These foreign car companies support their families when the American ones do not. These were clear examples and you chose to ignore them. Hence, ignorance.

My choice of words may have been strong and if they were offensive, then I apologize. I really have no issues with you, but I read through 3 1/2 pages on this thread where nothing was said about what needed to be done to fix the economy. Just a bunch of senseless foreign bashing. I do not believe the answer lies in the foreign car companies alone. Which is why I truly believe it won't make a difference, and technically, yes that even makes me ignorant to a degree. Again, it is the mentality of the average American that needs to change.

So here is my challenge to you. What are you going to do to change this? What action will you take?
