"Buy American." Answer me this:

What is the percentage of parts made on any car built in America that were actually manufactured in America by American labor?

"Cash for Clunkers." Answer me this:

Where does the money come from with the high and still growing unemployment rate to trade in a reliable fully paid off low MPG "clunker" that gets you around to at least interview, the grocery store, your kids school, etc. for a new car payment?

Even those families that have jobs that are facing no pay raise and increasing costs of living can't possibly justify a new car payment.

And I laugh at the fact that my 19 year Honda Civic 3 dr hatch EF still makes 35 mpg when I can't think of even one 19 year old Domestic that can do the same.

Cash for clunkers, just another part of ego boy's plot to get America on its knees.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
