For years, the term “buy American” has become more and more meaningless.
People often put their patriotism on display when they buy vehicles. Despite insurgent car companies from overseas taking over the American market, many Americans have refused to buy foreign automobiles. Instead, they chose cars from the big three — GM, Chrysler, and Ford — in order to support the American economy.
Or so they thought.
Over the past decade, more and more “American” car manufacturers have built factories in Mexico to take advantage of cheap labor and deals struck between the U.S and Mexican government. Surely, no city has felt the damaging effects of these deals more than Detroit — and the bleeding hasn’t stopped yet.
This week, Ford announced another huge shift sure to damage America’s Motor City.
See what the automaker announced in the report on the next page:
Well shame on Ford. It was Americans that made Ford great. It’s sad because Americans won’t put up with it anymore. I hope they like Mexico and can sell their cars there because we are done with them.
And then put high taxes on them for leaving america
Doesn’t matter they stabbed Americans in the back. We are done with them.
Never was a ford guy … And never will be now ..
Good make them to pay to get their cars in here
Never buy a FORD!
Stop buying fords. They will wake up.
We can always purchase another type of car; but we can’t save the employees who will lose their hard-earned jobs. Ford should be levied an extremely large fine!
No more ford’s in my house
The cars will come across the border loaded with dope.. You can bet on that!!
