Don't mean a thing!
They will just ship the stuff to some other country, relabel it as made in XYZ and ship it to the USA.

Money goes to China.. same a a Toyoto goes to Japan. Too difficult for some to figure out.
Now check the Parts Line Content on your Chevy and get back with me..
We will see who sends their money abroad.

funny thing is compare this to glock threads, made in the USA but still considered a non USA product
We still, however, have the option of buying US made automobiles supplied by US based companies, which is obviously preferred.

I reckon if Walmart sold Toyotos it would be wrong. The OP said so in the Walmart post from goods in China or any other foreign importer.
However remember when the big 3 had America and times were good. Remember? Folks lived the American dream. Then we let the foreign folks sell their cars here. Then we let them build THEIR companies here with the profits going back to THEIR homeland.
Remember all the steel mills? Most are gone now in America. America is weak because we import a lot of steel. Yes we buy from China and other countries, even to build the US made cars.Sad.
So when they start buying Coal mines I reckon the OP might see the light, but it will be way too late. Indiana sold the 80/90 Toll road to the Chinese a few years back. They are slowly creeping into America without firing one shot to kill us. Pay attention it is only going to get worse. All along just because Americans are working in those foreign car builders here, we are not helping America but the foreign owners.

Well there is no use to try and convince some of you America is in the toilet with foreign folks. Forget buying USA products made here and companies OF the USA. I just hope I die before total takeover.

Dale Jr????[:D][:D][:D] I hear some NASCAR drivers will be looking for work soon[;)]
can't wait to see the door tag on a chinee buick
Won't be long now and the bowtie we're so used to seeing on a Chevy will look more like a fortune cookie.[:(][V]
I'll take American made over any badge you put on foreign made.
Without manufacturing jobs, America is lost and will never recover.
We live in a world economy! We are no longer isolated against off shore producers! This happened to me back in the mid '80's.......I had to adjust , and so will the labor unions The big three are no longer competing !
Why are you yelling? I bolded one out of 20 words in a previous thread and got absolutely crapped on. Is there some "internetese" I am not aware of?

Remember when the big 3 were the only game in town and produced crap cars with crap components and didn't give a dang about product improvement?
Remember when a car with 50,000 mile was ready to be scrapped, and getting 100k on a car was worthy as newspaper articles because it was so rare?
Remember when the average car cost less than 2 grand?
Remember when a 2 year car note was considered "long"?
Remember the days before the UNIONS drove the cost of everything through the roof? Yes Lucile even medical care went through the roof due to unions (they were only ones with insurance, the rest of us paid cash).
