Answer 1

days of patriotism to american brands is long over.  bottomline is $$ in the pocket. how much can u spare for essentials and for luxuries.  certain things in usa r essentials but what is the % that it shld be of your take home pay?  

so we hv to prioritize our needs.  with everything going up, we hv to decide a big car or savings for the kid's college. the latter is more important.  

and its no longer american! its a global thing.

if its honda or ford - whats the diff? the plants r in usa. they give employment to americans.

the main issue which is not spoken at all - huge salaries / bonuses for these top executives to maintain their lifestyles while the poor idiots like u and me have to bite our teeth and bear the pangs of middle class living!  

the world is now a big village - so we hv to chip in and share our resources wh is shrinking rather too quickly
