    Who Laughs Last

    Don't be so smug. No one has snubbed their noses more at the American people than those Wall Street theives!

    After you destroy unions, let's see what happens to all other workers' rights from middle management down! We'll see a greater widening of the gap between the haves and have nots!

    And let's see how much those foreign companies/automakers contribute to America -- its charities, its disasters, and its communities (many of those dissasters occurring in the South and for which American automakers contributed millions of dollars -- compare what was given by foreign car companies). And let's hope we don't need to use those foreign automaker factories in an emergency -- like another WW II -- if our countries politics don't parallel theirs, we may be up the creek!
