Our wood comes from Canada. Our clothing comes from Peru and Taiwan. Our kid's toys come from Korea. Our food, with all its contaminants, comes from China. Our televisions and vcrs are made in Japan. Our red meats come from Australia.
Now, suddenly, we're worried about American manufacturing? It's too little, too late, too wrong.
I would like to wait until Obama is actually in office and can do something to promote energy futures. I do NOT accept this automotive crap is an emergency which absotively, posolutely must me addressed this very moment.
