Default Interesting Article

This does not bode well for what everyone on here likes, powerful cars and trucks that get bad fuel economy.

I dont know, but I think this is just another over reaction to the current fuel
problems were having right now. I have read before that the amount of polution that cars create is very small compared to every thing else. they just want people to panic and go out and buy the next great thing. Its all about money. just like allways.

What work? I know of several AMERICANS that have no problem working, but alot of employers do not want to pay. Rather spend little on "so-so" quality to benefit themselves personally, than to spend alittle more on good quality but less in their "yacht funds"

BTW, yes it is kinda a touchy subject for me as I am in the construction trade and see lots of trades get illegals to do the work only to have callbacks and in turn loose money for skilled craftsmen to fix it.
