My posts are the very definition of the race to the bottom that exists only in your mind. Why do we produce cars here instead of elsewhere? Because it's cheaper to, much like it is cheaper to build a car in the South than in the old Midwest, a fact that the UAW attempts to disguise when it claims that a certain tariff (say, on light trucks) is needed to keep manufacturing from moving to, say, Thailand.

its cheaper to produce cars in the US instead of China, is that your claim? we've made it plain that we would protect autos in this country - that's why that manufacturing is still here. subassembly production is increasingly moving to china however.
