> I'm looking into my US parking lot right now - I see about 90% foreign cars, and a few US SUVs.

A lot of those “foreign” cars are made in America. Heck, America not only makes a lot of foreign-badged cars, it exports a lot of them.




From wikipedia:

At the time, Mercedes-Benz and Nissan were already building a $1.4 billion plant near Puebla, while BMW was planning a $1-billion assembly plant in San Luis Potosí. Additionally, Audi began building a $1.3 billion factory near Puebla in 2013.[6]...

Funny how only one politician, in my near history, has dared to speak of this in public...

I'm a "buy a US car" guy and have been since I've been buying cars. Sadly, if you want to support US workers, buying a US car probably isn't the best option anymore.
