I dont blame any one particular thing fer the B3's problems...but a bad combination.
Fer one, the union's (UAW) been round since the 30's...it worked great back then...till everybody started gettin greedy.
Their cars was sellin good, till "somebody" introduced the wide world of imports to the US..and us goober Americans bought the crap out of em....cause we were greedy...
They quit makin em as good as they used to cause....the AUW and the execs were.....greeeeeeedy.

Should we let em fall on their own sword?
Maybe...but yet again....it's at the expense of the regular joe tryin to make a livin...and not just the UAW either.
Hubby works at a Chrysler dealership. They're layin off people left and right. He is lucky cause he is the alignment fella fer the whole "superstore" which is Chrysler, Honda, & Subaru.
Honda & Subaru is the only thing keepin his paycheck comin.
That there, freinds and neighbors, sucks.
I hate relyin on some other dat-blamed country to keep us afloat. Where is there American patriotism? We can do it our dam selves!
Where is American pride?
Remember when everybody was pushin "made in America"?
Well it failed..miserably.
So, we all done it to ourselves by bein greedy and yet again the regular joe is the one to suffer fer it....

I'm gonna put me on some green tights, get me a longbow and start stealin for the poor and all that...lol
