Some funny oberservations:

1) How much of that Chebby will be made with Chinese parts? If any, the car won't make it more than 2 laps before breaking down.
2) Will the crew be low paid factory workers imported from China? If yes, how do you translate "go high, go high!" in Mandarian?
3) Will the crew be wearing smily faced buttons? How about blue vests?
4) The car will carry the #50 on the sides. Will that change to $43.50 hald way through the race?

1badgtx, yes, I'm aware that the country is going down the shitter, and aware of what those sell outs over at Chinamart have been doing. FYI none of the elected officials, regardless of party, seems to be doing **** about it. Arrrggh! Hemorrhaging of blue collar/white collar jobs to Asia is the norm these days.

If you don't believe elections can be bought, check out how one man, and his wife were able to donate $10m to one candidate. Like they wouldn't be looking for something in return via favors if the stooge made it in? So much for a gov't by the people, for the people?!?!?!?

I'll take my unions over their forced, low-wage labor any day.

I'm from Pittsburgh... a city the unions made a lot of progress in destroying. I have relatives who live in Michigan, a state the unions made a lot of progress in destroying. Walmart may have its faults, and might put some small businesses out of business, but I've never seen Walmart bring down a whole industry, city, or state.

I'm not a big WalMart guy but they employ a $hit load of people, that would probably be on welfare, some socialist liberal govt. funded program or unemployment otherwise... At least they are here in the US & have 100,000's of jobs here, even if they buy/resale Chinese, Mexican, Tiwianese, Japanese, Korean made useless crap, along with many small US made products, from companies that would be able to get into the retail market otherwise & some very large US companies... The super high cost of Union labor, aren't the answer for everything or everyone, there is always 2 side to the story...
