And the EPA fuel economy minimums are set by the US government.
Not foreigners.
Why you persist in thinking that the world dictates our emission standards is beyond me. And thus, why we should give a flying rat’s @ss about the rest of Euroweenie-land also escapes me.
China doesn’t care, and we can learn from that.
Thank YOU for your post. I am with you 100%
“Thanks for pointing this part of the article out John. As this is exactly what I’m talking about when I say those of us who make our living in the manufacturing industry are not enjoying an increase in prosperity...”
Not surprising.
I wouldn’t hope for a fence; not with the dems holding a slim majority. Thank god that some of the labor unions apparently sided with Americans this time instead of the queers on the left and twisted the arms of their senators and reps.
Better to elect real conservatives in the primaries and hope for a sweep in ‘08. Remember the dems won in ‘06 because the republicans turned left and they ran against George Bush. If we turn the republicans back to the right guess what? The dems don’t have George Bush to run against; only their ideas (anti American socialism) and platform (pretty much a mirror of the communist’s party’s platform).
So the news is good in my humble opinion. Conservatives might win the day in Nov ‘08; then we can twist their arms for a fence and deportation.
It’s harder to blackmail the welfare queen?...
And, I wonder if there is less interest in new houses because of new fears of cut corners and poor quality.
“Your mechanic (plumber, etc.) speaks good English” probably has a greater customer appeal than it did a decade ago.
