Perhaps that is too much information for you, or an unapproved site as well. Here is a hint, the Kia Sorento which is built in Georgia, I mentioned it earlier, is made from 60% American made parts. Roughly the same as the Ford F-Series trucks.
You ignored my questions about the other unions. Why do you want them to go jobless and hungry and all of that? Don't they get good jobs and wages working to transport the cars that are imported? Why should I take a big old dump on the Longshoremen because you are operating under the mistaken impression that the "Big 3" Are all 100% American Made?
BTW, a lot of that "American Made" is parts from Mexico and Canada under NAFTA. Take GM for a minute and look at the list of closed or sold facilities. Since you cling to your buy American nonsense in the face of the facts that A) There are no American Made Cars anymore, and B) The so called foreign brands are often more American made than the American Brands, for example the Toyota Sienna Van is 75% American. Why, the Toyota is more American Made than the Ford Pick Up trucks. Only 45% of the Chevrolet Cruze is American Made. So how am I helping the United States out and supporting the people of the United States by buying a car that is majority foreign made? Other than rubbing a salve on my ignorance I mean.
If you knew anything about the issue, it might be instructive and informative to discuss it with you.
