    HAHAHAHA, Inspection....your funny

    an "inspection" is a pay as you go process. Inspections are a joke in almost every state in the country.

    American companies should be having their products developed and made here, stop outsourcing everything to (*)(*)(*)(*)ing china and mexico. Which means GM needs to hault operations in Mexico and bring the jobs back to the USA . And if another country like Mexico wants a GM plant there, then they can pay us and invest in the plant on their own, we should have to spend a dime to give them jobs.

    Also no more giving jobs here to foreigner. They can hire here as we have just as many capable and experienced workers for IT or other professions as India, Nigeria, or whatever. US citizens should have first crack first and foremost. And only IF there are not any qualified American citizens in a certain field ONLY THEN can a company or government entity search for a candidate abroad.

    Americans first, everyone else last.

    Oh an it should be illegal for any illegal to have a job here ever. We don't need illegals to better our country, we have plenty of able bodied americans who need the jobs.

    Do you know what certified plumbers get paid? Truck drivers with a CDL?
    A seamstress isn't necessary to monogram a shirt. But a tech who can fix the machine is.
    You need a marketable skill if you want a good job.

    All this is meaningless without a base which was manufacturing.

    What is the foundation of our economy? What can it be? Think about it.

    Well we employ a lot of illegals. I'm so tired of people complaining about it. Boycott or shut up.

    Illegal immigration is a left vs right issue and you know it. My spelling of antagonize was a typo and I have never lived outside of the lower 48, but if you need to use a technicality to sidestep my post then go for it hack.

    You're so tired of it that you made a thread inviting people to do it. You thought you were being clever but quickly got sat down by people who have a better understanding of the issue than you do. Kind of funny, thanks for the thread.

    It should not be up to the people to "boycott" something the Federal Government should not allow to happen. It is the failure of the government to put a stop to it.

    The government creates nothing, makes no profit, and is sustainable only by private business. Profit.

    Private business? What about working people paying taxes?

    Already stated Ill never buy GM again, their vehicles are (*)(*)(*)(*) and overpriced anyways.

    And it is a shame we employ illegals, if I had my way there would be more than boycotting going on. More like heavy fines and jail time.

    We have scarce lousy paying jobs because of outsourcing and the destruction of the manufacturing base.

    GW and Obama did nothing about illegal immigration. Nothing.
    Lower 48? Contiguous US, maybe? Alaska is to the north, Hawaii to the south.

    Also, in the town I grew up in, one company manufactured chairs and another shoes. I think most of our furniture and shoes should be made here too.

    You answer posts totally different than what is posted. You must be in over your head.

    Profit drives everything. Without profits there are no jobs, no taxes, and no government.

    Not when the profit is generated from foreign made goods. The jobs are in another country benefitting that country and it's government.

    That is nice vague statement you made.

    Profits are the lifeblood. Dispute that.

    Where did I disagree? The strawman is old. Please try again.

    Not all are capable of that level of skill. We need more jobs that the 70 to 90 IQ crowd can earn money at.

    Not unless Trump gets elected. Most of my favorite small businesses in my area have closed their doors in the last several years.
