Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News

I think the American car companies have been kept afloat for decades by people who want to "buy American". I think this also explains the descrepencies in the sales figures. Buying "welfare cars"/Chrysler & GM vehicle is not considered "American" by middle Ameirica. Ford is the only true American car company left standing in their eyes. As the owner of several Fords, I'm in that camp as well. If I'm right, then GM and Chrysler had better build superior cars in a big hurry because they are on the same footing as Honda and Toyota in the mind of US consumers which means they will be compared soley on their products. Treacherous turf to be sure.
