??????missed the point. Even though his choice of
a Toyota Highlander wouldn't be American
built....PLENTY of America and Americans with Toyota, their
distributors buy in America. Vehicles are GLOBAL now....there
is no true "american" 100%, just like no Japanese
Toyota. Toyota employs 1000's and dealers employ 1000's
of workers. Today on a 15 year old Ford Escort Wgn,
it read....BUY AMERICAN.....REMEMBER Pearl
Harbor.....then god "d" it buy American....this reminded me of
that. Free trade is VERY healthy, makes the GNP good.
Sure there is a trade difference between the U.S. and
Japan but for a country smaller than Texas its pretty
darn good.<br><br> >> ...but not too many people
care about that, do they? <<<<br><br>I made
my living, paid my bills, put my wife through
college with the sale of imported vehicles. I care!!!! I
just choose the "free economy" and choose what "I"
want. If you take the time to look at everything in
your home you do/did too. The keyboard you type with,
the watch you wear, the monitor you use, the forks
you eat with, the roof of your home, the
television.....THOSE add up big time, the trouble is when they are
built in CHINA without free trade and pro communism
that hurts. My point is gonna be clear.....BUY smart.
It is a global economy.....without imports, you
don't have exports....the larger the country the more
import/export business has a crucial bearing on our fluid
economy. When trade is down, we ALL suffer....Japan fell
into a deep recession in the 90's....guess what, it
was felt here too.<br><br>Nuff said, I almost erased
this because it is far off topic but my motivation is
simply my life has sure prospered from the sale of
imported products and I am American...served my country
too.<br><br>bob
