A few of my friends have been concerned about buying what they called an “American Car,” while continuing to purchase all of the Chinese made items in Walmart, boxed as they are often beneath a huge American flag. They simply wouldn’t believe my data that the most “American Made” cars were being built by Nissan and Honda.

Now along comes some interesting information about the buying of America.

As the fearful Americans, victims of corrupt elections, and a collapsing economy, stumble around in intellectual confusion at the pronouncements of their leaders, its probably too much to imagine that such a bovine herd will take to the streets in protest as have the young Iranians. And, what will the recent “Tea Party” Republican protesters do, now that one of their leaders has returned a bit chagrined after his brief trip to Argentina?

Absolutely, and the % of all Honda models made in the US is growing, while GM's is decreasing toward China.

I've owned Hondas since 1991, and I always mention (to people who get exercised about this sort of thing) that I did in fact buy an American car.
