Now, what does Nascar and F1 have to do with which countries/continents produce the best cars? And more importantly, WTF does it have to do GM going bankrupt?

Maybe it's just me, but the last thing most people have on their mind during a crisis is "shanking" minorities or majorities. Prime example: Katrina. Have you ever asked yourself what causes racism? Since you cite a case of extreme racism here's another example: The confederate army. From the beginning of the war to the end of the war Blacks and Whites served in the confederate army. They received equal pay and served together(mixed, not segregated).

I wonder how Dodge is doing in amidst of all of this.. their names show up no where, seems like they are doing fine.

Well, as mentioned earlier, GM/Ford did have a failed business plan BUT they recently have altered that plan, also it was too late. If the government bails them out, I do have reason to believe that this kind of crisis would not happen again.

Also that article has a real valid point, but then again, AT&T or Abercrombie hasn't been around for 80+ years and is not as deeply rooted into American past/culture as GM.

His first plan was to deport most blacks to Africa. Abraham Lincoln also used racial slur(s) when dialoguing with blacks.


OT: I don't think American Cars suck...
