33. What about hard working American workers...
at Nissan plants in Tennessee and some of the other American plants for foreign cars? When I buy a car I want it to run for a decent amount of time.

I haven't owned an American car since 1987. My mother and I both had Chevrolets (which I believe is French for "piece of shit") and they both died at the same time, leaving us without decent transportation. And the cars weren't that old. Our family had bought Chevys for YEARS because my uncle was a parts manager for them back in the 70s. The 1980 Chevy Citation was a LANDMARK in crap cars. But my mom was newly widowed, and didn't know the old rule about not buying a car the first year they are made.

I won't own an American car again until they buy something worth making.
