Thanks for the update Justinec101,it is a global world...India and China's increased wealth (due to jobs we let go to them) now have more money for cars and gas....bingo!! oil hit $100 a barrel. Thank's also for the heads up on the fact that CEO's make profits..that trickled into my mind as I loaded a $100,000 painting in the cargo hold of a Gulfstream G-IV that I used to fly (used to meaning that the jet has been relocated to Montreal and I lost my job). CEO's are going to make the money no matter what,you need to consider the economic food chain that effects you. I do care about American employees,that's why I own a flex-Fuel Ford Taurus (built near Atlanta)...unfortunately not enough people cared because that plant is history. Where are people going to come up with a $41,000 car if we lose our manufacturing jobs? You can't sustain a country on Pizza Huts and Tanning Salons...
