In Autoweek forums, they're discussing $9000 Chinese cars. Would you buy?

I wouldn't buy one, but my question is whether WalMart will sell them?

1. Uglier than a Ugo.

They can charge $9000 b/c they pay their workers $.30/day

2. No, but I bet my niece would.

Especially a slightly used one. She has no transportation right now. She and her husband are on a very tight budget while she's in college. He has a decent job for a 22 year old, so she doesn't qualify for financial aid. She shops at Walmart sometimes because she has to; she can't afford anything of quality right now.

3. My next car will be a hybrid.

Haven't made up my mind which one yet, but it'll definitely be a hybrid.

4. our govt should not force us to buy them

we each compete against each other to purchase goods and services to survive and achieve social status. When our government allows importation of goods from low wage countries, it forces us to buy them, because doing so leaves us more money to purchase others goods.

If our govt did not allow such importation we would all be on an equal footing in that we have to buy more expensive American cars.
