good analogy... good post

Now there's an idle threat if ever there was one. Sure, some of them might move their _corporations_ to places like Dubai as Halliburton did (what patriotism, huh?), but where are they going to go where they can BUY the government's favors as they have done here?

And how are they going to move their skyscrapers and real estate holdings?

Hey, if it were so easy, they'd ALL be in Mexico by now. Trouble is, there they'd have to cross swords with people like the drug lords and pay off the police. A thorn by any other name is still a..... ?

you think the US is the only corrupt government? believe it or not, there are places worse than ours, as far as corruption... and cheaper too... didn't Chevrolet just move 7 more plants to Mexico?- right after they got the bailout? Obama tried to talk them into staying, but they are gone... might as well close Michigan up, or sell it to canada, nothing going on up there... they don't have to move any skyscrapers or real estate holdings, they just sell them to foreign invevestors, like they have been doing... and mexico is not the only country out there, there are plenty of small countries that would take way less in bribes than here...

And what do you think will happen to GM stock (again) if a Marxist government takes over in Mexico and decides to nationalize the GM plants? It's happened forever elsewhere in Central America.

Tell me something-- would you buy a Chinese-made Chevrolet? And if not, why?

I was looking for another car for about 4 months and finally settled on a Japanese vehicle made in the USA. Why? Because the Mexican-made Chevy's were the worst kind of JUNK. Even the cheap Hyundai models got better ratings than the Cobalts.
