The question is why do those on this board (not all but some) hate American Auto manufacturing

Uuuuhhhh....can you say "LABOR UNIONS" sucking out all the competitive blood out of the American auto industry? Hate American auto manufacturing? I think its more like wishing the american auto industry can get up to the 21st century and get rid of the prima donnas assembling all the cars.

I toured the Ford Rouge facility and was shocked to see the auto workers standing around with I-Pods in their ears and gabbing to their friends much of the time....and they're probably pulling down about $100,000 a year. They need to get a job like the rest of us in America they are an embarrassment to the rest of the working class.

The $100,000 auto union employee is an urban myth. These guys/gals make no where near that. I suppose you think they should work for minimum wage. Manufacturing cars is a high teck business these days.
