You're right, but I still think it's fucked up what he's trying to say. Competition is what makes products better for the consumers. If there was only one automobile manufacture we'd all still be driving Model T's. The reason the Americans are looking into Hybrid technology and smaller more efficient engines is because the foreign manufactures have been doing it for years and are selling like hotcakes. If gas was still $1.50/gallon GM and Ford would still be shoving pick up trucks and SUV's down our throats. I'm actually happy gas has gotten expensive as fuck, and I hope it keeps rising. It has shown this country, that we need to find alternate fuel sources and create our own energy. Everyone talks about the environment, but the only reason we are looking into alternate fuel is because of how expensive oil has gotten. No one gives a shit about the environment, it's just a nice reason to cover up the real reason we're looking into alternate fuels. Like I said before, it's no ones fault but the American manufacture's, who sat around getting rich like fat cats off of their trucks, and now that fuel has skyrocketed, they have no products to compete against the foreigners. Fuck the big 3, I hope they all go extinct and make way for better thinkers.
