So where your comment and many seem to have a shared ideal that providing Americans livable wages and bringing back these jobs to the states would make the cost of these vehicles astronomical is only partly true - but doesn't necessarily have to be. Right now, it allows the corporation (GM) in this case to have it's cake (and affordable/sellable product) and eat it too (increased profits via outsourced labor). Whereas we, the consumer, have our cake (the affordable, desirable product) but cannot eat it too (having our purchase turn around and feed the same economy which should be comprised of mostly our country building and producing the product). This isn't something I feel the need to debate on a car forum, but figured I would throw out my 2 cents to contrast the ever popular slants against trivial societal hot button issues such as trans folks using public restrooms, 15/Hr burger flippers/offended millennials, and so on.. |

This is not happening because the workers were making $30- $40!! This happen because we have a central bank called the Federal Reserve that is as Federal as Federal Express that has been debasing our currency for over hundred years(the code word is inflation) by endless money printing and racking up the national debt to 20 trillion!!!!!! Sheep do not have a clue on how the money system works and who is pulling the strings and destroying this country. You want to know more than read this book and it will explain how this once great country is now a shadow of what it once was and is headed like Detroit. http://arcticbeacon.com/books/Eustac...serve_Bank.pdf

It's bad enough they now make Camaro parts....putting their huge "Made in China" label just adds that little extra touch of rubbing our noses in it, don't you think? |

Well, it's not really their fault. It's ours.

If we're going to get in to which country did what to whom when it comes to killing other people's soldiers and citizens, then we can't really buy or sell to anyone.
Italy and Germany were against the US in WW2. Japan did the whole Pearl Harbor thing. We (USA) are still the only nation in history to use nuclear weapons against another country. Because of this, I believe we hold the record of most people killed at once in a war. England at one time was slaughtering our citizens. Mexico was even fighting against us back in the middle 1800s. So.. I don't really think it's fair to use something like that as a "should be buying from" type of marker. |

This is the back of the FIFTY decal for those that wondered. You can also see the foam surround that is there to help with placement.
