Default I Think Buy American

I have never been in a union shop, with the execption of a summer job during college.

Sadly, there are no North American-made cars that come close to what I'd be interested in. Maybe the Ohio-build Civic, or the Geo Metro, but that is built in South Korea.

Showing my age again - remember in the early 90s when WalMart touted the "Made in the USA" products? I saw a documentary on PBS of American suppliers dependant on WalMart, who cut them out because foreign competition low bid them. If WalMart tried harder to keep domestic choices, I'd feel a lot better about them.
