Well that didn't take long.

Years before when they first began building Buicks in China, it was stated it was to satisfy demand there. The much ballyhooed exports meme the corporate shills use try to try to soften us up with every time a discussion on trade comes up are a drop in the bucket compared to US imports: Not only do they fail to make even the smallest of dents in the US/China trade deficit, but they fail to slow the rise in same.

Branding isn't shit as an "export" anyway, and now the cat is out of the bag. We'll no doubt see reports of either overcapacity in their US manufacturing, or how "uncompetitive" it is as the slide toward offshoring even more US production continues.

A bunch of despicable vipers. Of course the corporatrists, and their third-way toadies will cheer this on. Assholes.
