ParticipantFor the record, and this probably does not need explaining (except to viruses):
When I speak of saving auto worker jobs or UAW jobs, I take for granted that people realize that ancillary jobs come with those jobs.
Without the bottom there is no top. Assembly line jobs in this country help create engineering jobs and accounting jobs, IT jobs and advertising jobs, etc, etc.
I’ve been lucky enough to not need to stand at a boring assembly job, but all along I’ve known that part of my income comes from people who do.
A firm, prosperous foundation to our economic pyramid is essential.May 17, 2009 at 7:19 PM in reply to: OT: Auto Bailouts Everywhere – Even in Japan and Germany #401306Rt.66

ParticipantNice read, thanks for taking the time, dig your screen name.
A smile comes onto my face whenever I hear someone say positive encouraging things about the quality of US goods.
I too have noticed a distinct quality difference, odd that so many seem to believe the opposite is true.
I hope we see that insourcing wave soon π

ParticipantFor sure.
The auto industry is one of the most heavily government subsidized industries.
Most Gov.s realize the imporatnce of this sector and fight to gain an upper hand. Japan’s auto industry started with subsides and continues down that path.
I am saddend that our Gov. seems all too willing to let our auto industry become a shell of its former self. Never have US companies made so many exciting and interesting models (except for maybe the late 60s?).
Boy I’d love to hear Obama read the teleprompter telling him to say:
“Today we fight back! Today we stop the outflow of jobs and manufacturing to other countries. Today we start making our own stuff again!”
Change we get jobs from would be nice.
