Now, I'm neutral about this subject but I could never figure out how you can defend the US auto industry when it comes to how much money is going back to America.
For example, the main defense is "If you buy an American car, the money is going back to America.".
From what I've heard, Korean and Japanese factories in America are actually helping America by a long shot. The Hyundai Sonata and Santa Fe use majority American metal and American made parts. Even with some money going back to South Korea, majority of the money stays in America. Same with the Toyota Camry: majority of parts are American and majority of the money is staying in the US... same with the Honda Accord which is greatly helping Ohio out. Heck, majority of Korean and Japanese cars are even engineered and designed in America.
Even American cars that are built in different countries help foreign countries more than the USA.
But the real question is, how can an American defend American cars when it comes to supporting the USA?
I hope this is not considered a political question because I have no intentions into making this political.
