Doesn’t do much good to have a totally free market when your national borders are irrelevant, and your country doesn’t own its own assets.

OH, but selling off our capital assets is called "foreign investment in America" and is a good thing, don'tcha know...

Why, if we can only sell off everything and become thralls to foreign-owned corporations, we'll be so prosperous you won't know what to do with it!

needless to say, the sale would probably not have occurred if the dollar was not so low against the euro.

if you look at the u.s. govt bailout of chrysler, to provide jobs for over-priced unions, now what?

mercedes benz doesn’t even want chrysler; they bought and dumped chrysler to the cerberus group.

in the final tally, honda and toyota did us a favor; doors were falling off iaccoca’s cars.

now, americans make and buy hondas and toyotas, and they like them.

it’s called COMPETITION.
