GM Job Loss: Bogus Economics

Very simple economics, not degree required. Generally speaking, Americans cars are not good. It is simple. Are ALL american cars bad? Of course not, but what the masses want and buy are not good. Hondas, Toyotas run forever....FOREVER!! These things never break! Do ALL Hondas and Toyotas run forever? Of course not. As a matter of fact, a family member had to change the starter and water pump in the last month on her Camry 2003. Just like the american cars we have owned, after 5 years to the tee!, they start to break down. But our 2001 Toyota Sienna runs like a charm. A Chevy truck we had a few years back, after 5 year (again, exactly!) oil started leaking out (either to the outside of the inside...amazing!...no... the first american car owned in the family that did this or the only brands, our Fords did the same thing...I have to say, american companies have great labs in order to get these same results!). So what did we do?? We moved to Japanese cars and never looked back. Again, those things run forever! Camry's now have the same comfort as only the american made cars used to have, they are a nice drive. So are americans made cars still, but you know they will brake after 5 years....to the day!!!! I don't work for a car industry to post any awards or whatever or have family working for the auto industry...I'm just a consumer who is looking to get the most out of his money the american, capitalistic way: "Who got the better deal? You do? OK here is my money".
