    Humpf

    You keep forgetting to mention that the US actively subsidizes foreign transplant automakers - but very strangely seems determined to put the its auto industry into liquidation.

    Similarly, US corporations are given grant subsidies and tax breaks to export US jobs.

    You figure out why the US has these self-destructive policies in place and you'll go a long way towards figuring out How the World Really Works.
