Major US corporation have shown themselves to be irresponsible globalist cheap labor hacks. They deserve a huge tariff. This can’t go on.

I believe the Focus plant is going to be the plant that'll make the new Ranger and Bronco. I'm not sure why they need to go to China, but Ford's​ stockholders need to tell them to build a factory in Georgia and build the Focus there. (It would replace the old Atlanta plant that made Mrs. Deplorable's Taurus wagon.

What not future production of the Focus from Mexico to AMERICA?

Because AMERICA is a capitalist and not a socialist country.

-btw That's got to be the strangest screen name choice I've seen in a while.

Unfortunately Mexico is not hurting. Ford already has 3 plants there, Chrysler also has 3 plus General Motors has 4 and Mazda, Honda, Nissan, Toyota, Volkswagon, Kia and BMW have auto plants in Mexico as well.

If I have to choose between a foreign built Focus or an American built Cruze, I'll take the Cruze. BTW, I know the Cruze hatchbacks are built in another country (no thanks) but the sedan is still built here.

Of course, if I have to choose between a US built F150 crew cab or a foreign built Silverado crew cab, I'll buy the Ford.

They're all doing it. We need to vote for building here with our dollars.
