Reply #11: this has been going on for many years now [View All]

I worked for ford at their wonderful dealerships for many years and most all the parts other than the actual boby structure is made either in china , mexico , canada , india , malasia and the list goes on . I always had to laugh when people who bought a new car or truck said they wanted to but american . And to top this off most of the problems arise from these very same outsourced parts and there are given out to the lowest bidder , not the best quality but the lowest bidder .

All of this is one enormous sick joke . Almost nothing is made in the USA anymore this should have been some sort of clue way would the auto's be any different .

With all these jobs gone now and you don't know how many people who lost their job are still well away from retirement age , many may have 20 or more years left to go and they will be out there fighting for the very few low wage jobs out there and then where will we be ?

I doubt that one single job that has been outsourced will ever return and I certainly don't see a trend in new jobs for the 21st century popping out of the ground anything soon if ever .

All that will happen is as the numbers of people unemployed rises and they loose their homes or dwellings do to no money then there will be many thousands with nothing to stop them from storming the whitehouse and pulling it off it's foundation .
