Oh they're frigging brilliant, all right. Did they finally figure out how to build an aircraft carrier? :lol;
Sir, we are talking about cars. They are well behind at building aircraft carriers, but that’s why they are building artificial islands everywhere, which are unsinkable, but not very mobile. Nukes aside, the US destroys them even with the population advantage.

I want a communist Chinese BYD car/suv made by slave child labor that’s more reliable with features well ahead of its time at half the price of the crap I can get here in the US, in hopes that Xi will one day own the entire US.
I hate those frickers just as much, but they make better products than us, facts. The product specifications come from the company based on cost, not from the outsourced manufacturer, yet we blame them for wiggle room within our own profit margins. The IQ of a Chinese manufacturer making $15 an hour there is well over 100, but how about here in the states?
Child manufacturing is no longer a thing in developing countries. And if it is, they choose to do so because it’s their best option. Christ, you sounded like a republican with that statement, but turned into a socialist real fricking quick.
Forever LSU but you guys can be morons sometimes and I love it…as long as you’re willing to learn.

I would rather buy a Nissan built in Mississippi over a Ford built in Mexico.
I’m not a fan of China, but they do make great electric products, like your phone and laptop, so why not car? It’s a skill issue. China labor is no longer as cheap, but their workers are highly skilled at the same price as a US fast food worker these days making $15 an hour.
Let countries specialize in what they’re good at. Reciprocal tariffs make sense but targeting products because of protectionism when your own product is inferior is outrageous and hurts us.

The pearl clutching from the idiot boomers in this thread who have literally been buying Chinese products out the arse for the last 40 years but draw the line at a vehicle is pretty funny. “Hell naw no baw I ain’t gonna drive a damn Chinese car, now let’s pack up the made in Mexico American brand car and go to Walmart- we’re out of bud light again”

Yes, I somehow knew this thread was going to be shite before I even opened it.

Poland has strict immigration laws. They believe in protecting their heritage and culture. I wonder if there’s a correlation?
Dude, Japan has the most isolated population in the world. Nearly impossible to get a green card there. Also the reason very few speak anything other than Japanese.
Reason they have a declining population in a nutshell: refuse to import people (I get it) and their young male population is more into cartoon porn over fricking.

Covid killed me as well. I died on August 12, 2021 in a NY hospital. That virus was brutal.

I was in Bangalore for 7 months and really enjoyed it. Had 3 caretakers with the main one I named Kumar. Once you don’t have to iron you’re own shirts, life is good.
Lived like a millionaire. You’d be surprised how pretty Indian women can get, especially the ones that come from money.
Major con: lazy for the most part and you need to bribe to get anything done on time.

It's because they are using synthetic chickens made out of plastic. Very sly.

Speaking of entertaining, I just say frick it, and blitzkrieg our way to Ottawa and get it over with. We gave them a chance to become a US state, but they instead threw a hissy fit and stomped around with our other allies. So as punishment, they become a US territory instead and that way we can avoid the electoral votes.

Turkey (excuse me, Turikye) has a legitimately great military. Major Air Force and army with better technology, training and morale than you’d think. I say get ‘em.

If the US accepts the Alberta province as a state, it means BC is cut off from the rest of Canada logistically and things start to crumble there. How could you transport from the west to east coast with a double 25% tariff?
US vs. Austrian made Glocks
Posted by VooDude on 3/5/25 at 10:11 pm
Would you buy a US assembled Glock over an Austrian one? I typically try to avoid American made products with complex components, like cars, for obvious reasons…
