Default RE: How much over invoice have people been paying?

I'm not saying the workers in Alabama are getting paid cheep, I'm sure they are making good money. you’re not buying direct from the factory there for your money is not going direct back to the factor. The greatest percent of the money made is going back to the HQ, not to the factory.

Couldn't have said it better myself! Although I think 4 and 5 should be reversed. My biggest thing is where the headquarters is because that is where 95% of the money is going.

A friend bought a Hyundai built in our home state of Alabama last spring for $20,000. I guess that was American per number 4 on the list. Do you really think $19,000 of his money went to Korea? I had no idea Alabama autoworkers worked so cheaply!
