What do you consider American?  Mexico and Canada are part of North America.
So that makes them part of American.

Welcome to the global economy.

There are things about it that I really don't like. However, the
realities are that global corporations are more important than
countries now. National identity is going to go away. It won't be that
you are "American", rather you will be an employee of <insert Global
corp>.

Daimler-Chrysler? for goodness sakes. Ford owns or controls Mazda,
Jaguar, and several others. Wal-Fart gets almost everything from their
own plants in China. Wal-Mart will see a good idea for an invention,
steal it, sell it, and hire more lawyers to keep the small company that
invented it tied up in court until the small company is out of
business. Microsoft does te same thing.

It just doesn't matter anymore if something is "American made". It is
also very very sad.

As long as we Americans keep voting the same type of politicians back
into office, nothing will change. Voting without researching, and
thinking should be criminal. It is not. You have the right to vote
stupid. And we usually do.

Oh well. According to the book "The Prince", as long as a politician
doesn't make life to bad all at once with the general population, then
they can get away with anything.
